      Except Native Americans. I dunno if it's true or not but I've been told that Native Americans are the only people on the planet that never cultivated alcohol in any beverage. Consequently they never developed the 'anti-alcoholic' enzymes necessary to keep from being alcoholics.

      And also some fields have the rows of agave plants too close to each other and they are full with small thorns around and a huge thorn in the end.. my sister used to work for Jose cuervo tequila when she was 17 and during the day of work they used to get so many thorns that they just waited for the end of the day to take them out(they dig them out with a niddle) but some are so deep that they have to wait for them to go up a little.. unfortunately for her during some years some went so deep she needs surgery to remove some from her hand lol she still has some after all this years..

      @sandeshsomwarpet Před 3 lety +1

      @Joe They spit the wine after tasting it because if they are high, they won't be able to judge the taste of subsequent wine samples that they are going to taste on a given day. You wrongly assumed that I am trying to say that more taste buds is equal to more getting drunk. All I tried to say was wine tasters have more taste buds and this qualifies them to be wine tasters as they can identify the taste and flavor in a much more detailed way than people with average taste buds.
