What is Mezcal?
What's the difference between Mezcal and Tequila?
Have you heard of Raicilla or Sotol?
Both Tequila and Mezcal come from Mexico & must be made in Mexico due their
Denominations of Origin, bunch of laws saying where products can be made to legally be
called by that product's name.
Tequila and Mezcal are made from a plant called Agave - a succulent native to latin America, commonly mistaken for a cactus but in fact a closer relative to asparagus.
Tequila can only be made from the Blue Weber Agave (Maguey Azul) and must be produced in one of five states: Jalisco (most famously), Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit and Tamaulipas
Del Maguey Single Village Mezcal
Founded in 1995, Del Maguey Single Village® Mezcal introduced the world to previously unavailable artisanal mezcal. Through deep cultural relationships with indigenous producers in Oaxaca and Puebla, Mexico, Del Maguey protects and preserves the ancient production processes that have been passed down generationally for hundreds of years. These traditional methods, combined with the diverse micro-climates and terroir of Mexico, give each expression a unique, complex character that celebrates the art of the family producer.
