Ruthie Marlenee Interview

Marcel interviews author Ruthie Marlenee, whose latest book, Agave Blues, delves deep into the heart of Tequila country in Mexico. Ruthie shared a lot of her knowledge of Tequila and what she learned in researching the book, traveling to Mexico, and also from her upbringing.
