Xander Shepherd and Zach Spohler
are two of the three founders of Artet, a groundbreaking cannabis
aperitif that's making waves in the cocktail space.
In this interview, we
discuss:
How
these two New York natives took the leap into the world of
entrepreneurship to pursue a dream that merged their passions for
art, hospitality, and cannabis.
What
an aperitif is, and how Artet stays true to the history of the
drink, but also extends the conversation about where Cannabis fits
into the cocktail space.
Where
the name “Artet” and the abstract artwork on the bottle come
from.
We
also do a quick contemporary state of the union regarding cannabis
laws and regulations in different parts of the US.
We
sample Artet, giving you in-depth tasting notes and cocktail
ideas
And
along the way, we dig into the problem with pebble ice, what to
drink on Richard Branson’s private island, and why it’s okay to eat
your cocktail garnishes.
