In a chaotic world where many things feel beyond our control, finding something timeless can bring a sense of calm. Perry, a rare and distinctive drink, is a perfect example. With origins that stretch back centuries, Perry embodies how our efforts to engage with nature reflect our attempts to understand the world around us. The process of making Perry from perry pears is often described as "fickle" due to its unpredictable nature. This video series offers a small window into that fascinating world, while the accompanying book provides a deeper exploration. It offers not only a refreshing escape but also a chance to enjoy a truly unique and memorable tasting experience if it captures your interest.
