The Mast Brothers

Our friend Ed David recently shot this awesome piece on the Mast Brothers for The Scout. Ed actually said it Best – so to quote, “A short documentary about two brothers, chocolate-makers, that are bringing craft back to the U.S. in an age of automation and the dulling of the American creative vision. We filmed them before they took off to set sail and to explore where their chocolate comes from.” I personally find this piece fascinating for many reasons, but how awesome would that be to sail across the world in search of goods! Respect!

    I’ve seen these guys all over blogs but mainly for their design aesthetic and old world style. But I hadn’t heard anything about the awesome sailing trip. dreamy.

    The talkative one really seems to be grasping at straws with his conceptual reasoning, but what they do is really impressive so it’s almost not necessary for them to have to justify it with all of the ideological conversation. Still entertaining and well put together, and like I said, what they are doing sort of speaks for itself.
