I don't know much about wine. But I like to drink it every now and then. Most of the stuff that I like falls into what a lot of people are calling "Natural Wine". It's the hotness. SO I talked with David Mitchell from Miss Wines all about his definition and he talks about his passion for history and wine. In this conversation we get into it but what important to him is that the wines are made using natural farming, small production, and minimal interventions both in the vineyard and cellar. We cover a whole lot of stuff from history and how it impacts winemaking and he shares some great wines in cans being made by Old Westmintser in Maryland. Hopefully we can go on some more Wine and Cider adventures soon!

From Shaksbury’s Website::
“The apples of America's early cider tradition, lost for a variety of reasons, are not hard to find in Vermont - once you know what you're looking for. Though far less numerous than they once were, the trees materialize around every bend, and over every hill, hiding in plain sight. To us, these trees represent a door to another time, and the basis for superior cider.
In the fall of 2013, and each subsequent harvest, we set to find some of these trees. We have sampled thousands of apples, fermented cider from over 150 unique trees, and selected twelve varieties to propagate. We have grafted these twelve varieties to over 1,000 trees, marking the beginning of our "Lost Apple Orchard" at Colin's farm and with our partners, Sunrise Orchards and Windfall Orchard. Each year we continue to harvest, graft, and plant trees in an effort to expand our source of Lost Apples.”

EP///0014: The Creative Kitchen of Blanch and Shock in London
I went to London and I met up with Mike Knowlden and Josh Pollen from Blanch and Shock.
They have a studio kitchen that is the hub for research on lots of different creative food projects they have going on . They also use the space to host monthly dinners, workshops, tastings and a range of other events. They are very interested in what they call the “British Palate”. They forage and use lots of lesser known ingredients like Alexander Seeds, Hogweed, and lots more.
We get into some of the interesting events they have cooked like “the brain banquet” where they were “asked to develop a dinner inspired by the brain for a project devised by the science event group, Guerilla Science. Over three days in March, a World War II bunker under Dalston was transformed into an architectural model of the brain. The eerie chambers were filled with sculptural installations, and experiments and memory tests were performed on the guests. We served five courses, interspersed with lectures from neuroscientists and psychologists who explained the processes of the brain, synaesthesia and memory.”
Check out their post on the dinner here::https://www.blanchandshock.com/brain-banquet
And an event based on refrigeration. “we presented a dinner inspired by the use of artificial refrigeration, from the global cold chain to the introduction of domestic fridges, and how they will shape our future.Based on the research of historian Helen Peavitt, whose book Refrigerator: The Story of Cool in the Kitchen is released later this year, we devised a menu which explores the ways in which the cold cycle can affect ingredients, inform techniques and have impact on our use of energy.
The meal featured five courses, beginning with ingredients that have never been refrigerated,followed by dishes which avoid or rely on refrigeration to increasing degrees.”

They have found a way to push pause on the usually hectic and stressful business of cooking food. They can dig deep into all sorts of different topics, learn, think critically and come up with interesting and creative interpretations that are unique to them and their cooking.
