Sarah is the founder of Leonista, the first 100% Karoo agave spirit in South Africa made the traditional way. The production process follows an age-old recipe used in Mexico to make agave spirits like Mezcal. It requires smoke and fire, hence Leonista’s delicious smokey flavour, similar to that of a Mezcal. In this episode, Sarah shares her inspiration for starting the business as well as the lessons she's learned along the way.
