Culinary historian and bakery manager Avery Robinson works with a nonprofit called Rye Revival, encouraging people to plant and enjoy more rye. Avery explains what’s special about rye for ecology, distillation, nutrition and cultural connection. He shares Yiddish drinking sayings and thoughts on drinking as an agricultural act while he and Rose Thomas taste Balcones rye whiskey and enjoy three types of rye bread from Black Rooster Food.
There is a bit of New York City street noise early in the interview as a result of recording with the window open on a hot day in July.
