When Sông Cái founder Daniel Nguyen was previously in the Twin Cities, showcasing their dazzling portfolio of wildly unique distillations and fermentations, Quam and Charles insisted to him that he appear on Libations for Everyone the next time he's in town.

WELL, next-time is now-time. Daniel rolled into the LFE mansion recording studio with Sông Cái's entire catalogue in tow. This heady convo spans subjects like human dopamine response, designing bitter amaro alongside a Vietnamese medicine woman, transforming cocktails in black garlic machines, regenerative farming, and these topics of the week:

🤫 Name a secret hideaway, anywhere in the world, and whether you'd like to share it with more people, or keep it to yourself.

🥙 What is your favorite food or beverage fusion of international cultures?

🍹What is your favorite gin cocktail of the moment?

🍃 Spotlight a spice or herb that you believe deserves more recognition.

🧳 Give an inexperienced or worrisome traveler some advice on traveling more comfortably.

🥪 Build us your perfect sandwich.
