The Perfect Tequila You’ve Never Had - Alec Tesa - Eleven20 Tequila
Eleven20 is born in Jalisco, a land that has been fed by the Tequila Volcano for thousands of years, where the Blue Agave grows naturally fertilized by the volcanic minerals that have generated optimal conditions to give an exceptional profile to the pineapples that over the years have been enriched by the subsoil. Their Agave grows with a formation inclined to herbaceous notes, not too sweet, which gives us a versatile profile and more possibilities to create unique flavors. Eleven20, named for the founders Alec and Anna (1 and 1 for "A" in the alphabet), and the family of 20 farmers running the distillery, strives for purity and quality, using purified water, traditional farming techniques, and never using any additives. Through their commitment to quality, Eleven20 Tequila has become recognized as an innovator of flavor and aromas, with its signature blend being celebrated by mixologists and connoisseurs alike. With a culture rooted in respect for tradition, expertise, and craftsmanship, each bottle of Eleven20 Tequila is a testament to the highest standards of excellence. Its unparalleled taste has gotten it named the official tequila of National tequila Day and National Margarita Day, and also has a reputation of turning non-tequila drinkers into tequila lovers.More Info: https://eleven20tequila.com/Support the show: https://hype.co/@gritdailynewsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Intelligent ACs For A Better Climate - Ran Roth - Sensibo
It was the summer of 2004 and Omer Enbar was dreading the idea of returning to his sweltering apartment after a rigorous bike commute home. By rigging an IR blaster to an old laptop and some coding magic, he would activate his AC by sending an email titled "AC on". He was now able to activate his AC just before his bike ride home. Years had gone by, and this pet project lay forgotten, until 2013 when Omer was discussing climate change with a friend, who referenced a recent article about the effects of air conditioners on energy and CO2 emissions. It was then that Omer teamed up with his friend, future co-founder, Ran Roth to begin manually building the first Sensibo prototypes. These prototypes were tested on friends and families until the concept was perfected. The two officially co-founded Sensibo in 2014 through a crowdfunding campaign. Since launching, Sensibo has grown into a global brand with global implications in the fight for a cleaner planet and comfy homes.More Info: https://sensibo.com/Support the show: https://hype.co/@gritdailynewsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
