Mezcal can be made from over 30 types of agave, whereas tequila is made only from blue agave. This variety of agave plants contributes to the diverse flavour profiles found in mezcal. Just like Champagne in France, mezcal has a denomination of origin. It is mainly produced in the Oaxaca region of Mexico, although there are other authorised regions.

Mezcal is deeply rooted in Mexican culture and tradition, often associated with rituals and celebrations and its robust flavour makes it a popular choice for pairing with food, especially traditional Mexican dishes. In recent years, it has gained international popularity, celebrated for its rich, complex flavours and artisanal production methods. It is enjoyed both neat and in cocktails, appealing to a broad range of palates and contributing to the global appreciation of traditional Mexican spirits.
