This week we're presenting the first episode of Back Bar, a rollicking deep dive into the events, phenomenon, relationships and human foibles that shaped the world’s most iconic drinks. Hosted by food and beverage writer Greg Benson and featuring guest appearances from industry luminaries like Derek Brown, Robert Simonson and Sother Teague, Back Bar’s vaudevillian approach to storytelling is a refreshing cocktail of history and humor.

In this first episode, Greg tells the story of the Sazerac, how it changed, adapted, evolved and kept pace with the rest of the cocktail world.
