Mezcal Union Uno 700ml
61.74 GBP
A journey was started to learn more about the greatness of Mezcal. Mountains were toured from peak to peak, reaching a hill where there was a tree to rest a bit. An old maestro mezcalero shared his Mezcal with his stories, and his ideas. He said that the only way to preserve the millenary tradition of producing artisanal Mezcal and generate progress was through uniting indigenous Mezcal producer families. So the journey continued with a clear understanding of the path: to create a union of mezcal with different producer families. From there Mezcal Unión was born, carrying that message in every bottle. Founded in 2011 by a group of four friends who also run a entertainment company (restaurants / bars + cultural platforms) in Mexico City. A lifestyle company that looks at entertainment as a driver for cultural change and strong social responsibility.The complex flavour profile of the mezcal recalls the smoke of whiskey, the varietals of wine, and the blendability of gin. Distinctive sweet and smooth finish. Fruit and herbal connotations, top notes of of citrus. Hints of smoke and earth. Enjoy neat, on the rocks or in cocktails.

University Press of Florida An Early Florida Adventure Story : The Fray Andres De San Miguel Account
22.03 GBP
A rare eyewitness account of a journey from Spain to the Americas during the Spanish colonial periodAmong documents of Florida’s Spanish colonial period, few eyewitness accounts exist.One of these, the 1595 narrative by Fray Andrés de San Miguel, expertly translated into English by John Hann, describes the two-year odyssey of a teenager from Spain across the Atlantic to Mexico, Havana, and Florida and finally back to Spain.The future friar’s account of his experiences as a young sailor brings to life the fleets of Spain and reveals how his journeys would change his life forever.It also provides vivid information about the Indigenous people of the Georgia and Florida coast. After Andrés’s ship passed Cape Canaveral, it was battered by a four-day storm and separated from the fleet.The officers commandeered the only launch and escaped; the crew kept the ship afloat and improvised a box-like vessel in which 30 survivors reached shore near the mouth of the Altamaha River—more dead than alive for lack of food and water.The author offers detailed descriptions of the Guale Indians and of Mission San Pedro Mocama on Cumberland Island.He also provides vignettes of life in St. Augustine and, on his way to Havana, of encounters with South Florida Indians who came out to trade and with a gentlemanly English pirate.The adventure closes with Fray Andrés’ return to Cadiz, Spain, where he witnessed the 1596 British siege and burning of that port. Only seventeen years old at the time of the voyage, Fray Andrés presents a cold-eyed view of the sailing experience in the sixteenth century, trenchant observations of the behavior of the ship’s officers and the circumstances of the survival of the crew, and insight into the ambitions, concerns, and religiosity of the Spaniards.The book includes Hann’s translation of a brief introductory essay written by Fray Andrés’ Mexican publisher, telling of the young man’s entry into the Carmelites and his later life as a church architect, builder, and hydrographic expert involved in the drainage of the valley of Mexico City.

Charco Press Salt Crystals

Five hundred miles from mainland Colombia, grassroots resistance, sloppy vacationers, and a muddy history of conquest converge for Verónica, returning after living in Mexico City, ready to understand herself and the place she came from. San Andrés rises gently from the Caribbean, part of Colombia but closer to Nicaragua, the largest island in an archipelago claimed by the Spanish, colonized by the Puritans, worked by slaves, and home to Arab traders, migrants from the mainland, and the descendants of everyone who came before. For Victoria – whose origins on the island go back generations, but whose identity is contested by her accent, her skin colour, her years far away – the sunburnt tourists, sewage blooms, sudden storms, and ‘thinking rundowns’ where liberation is plotted and dinner served from a giant communal pot, bring her into vivid, intimate contact with the island she thought she knew, her own history, and the possibility for a real future for herself and San Andrés.
