Welcome back to Thirst for Knowledge where two nerdy people try to answer all your (and our) questions about your (and our) favorite alcohols. We are feeling the fancy vibes in our recording studies so it's time for martinis.
Join Ben and Dr. Lex as they stir some martinis, because that's the correct method. Learn with us juniper berries, phenols and all sorts of gin-related science and history.
Pour yourself a glass and come and learn along with us.
And always remember to drink, and science, responsibly.
