Jack visits the bustling city streets of Istanbul to the ancient islands, trying to understand the complicated relationship with alcohol. He discovers beer, rebellion, soccer, Islam, and a fiery brandy, all which thrive in modern Turkey.
Jack goes up river, deep into the jungles, and discovers 'spit' beer made by Native peoples of the Amazon. Back in civilization, he is asked to drink one of his most challenging drinks to date.
Jacks seeks out a nomad family, and shares their Camel Vodka and Fermented horse-milk; then returns to tour a factory, where vodka is filtered through diamonds and pearls to create "the worlds most perfect Vodka".
