That means we'll dig into things like where to go, where to stay and what to eat or drink along the way. We'll be serving tea on hot topics and big news, pop culture, the cultural significance and impacts that food, drink, and travel have on our lives, and bring on guests and experts who are just as excited, passionate, and knowledgeable about tasting, toasting, and traveling as we are. and have a lot more in store that we can't wait to share with you all. Grab your favorite beverage, get comfortable, and enjoy the journey with us. Cheers!
