What Makes Mezcal Different from Tequila?

While both mezcal and tequila are made from the agave plant, the key difference lies in the production process. Mezcal is traditionally made by roasting the agave hearts in underground pits, which imparts a smoky flavor. Tequila, on the other hand, is usually steamed, resulting in a cleaner, more agave-forward flavor. Mezcal also uses a wider variety of agave species, giving it a more diverse and complex flavor profile.

Which Mezcal Should I Try First?

If you're new to mezcal, start with a more approachable option like Del Maguey Vida or Monte Alban Mezcal. These mezcals offer a balance of smokiness and agave sweetness, making them great for sipping or mixing into cocktails. For a more premium experience, try Del Maguey Single Village mezcals, which offer richer flavors and showcase the craftsmanship of small-batch producers.

How Should I Drink Mezcal?

Mezcal is best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to open up its flavors. Many mezcal drinkers also enjoy it with a side of orange slices dusted with chili powder or sal de gusano (worm salt) for an authentic experience. Mezcal is also fantastic in cocktails like the Mezcal Margarita, Mezcal Negroni, or a Paloma for a smoky twist.

What Foods Pair Well with Mezcal?

Mezcal pairs wonderfully with flavorful, smoky foods like grilled meats, barbecued dishes, or tacos with rich fillings like carnitas or barbacoa. It also complements earthy dishes like mole or roasted vegetables. For a lighter pairing, try mezcal with fresh ceviche or seafood, where its smoky depth balances the brightness of the dish.

What’s the Difference Between Joven, Reposado, and Añejo Mezcal?

  • Joven: This is unaged mezcal, showcasing the natural smokiness and fresh agave flavors. It’s ideal for mixing into cocktails or sipping if you prefer a bold, straightforward taste.

  • Reposado: Aged for a short time (typically 2-12 months) in wooden barrels, reposado mezcal takes on smoother, more complex flavors with hints of oak and spice while maintaining its signature smokiness.

  • Añejo: Aged for over a year, añejo mezcal is the most complex, offering deep, rich flavors with layers of smoke, wood, and subtle sweetness.

Does Mezcal Get Better with Age?

Mezcal, like other spirits, can improve with age when it's aged in wooden barrels (reposado and añejo). The aging process adds complexity, mellowing the harshness of the smoke and allowing the agave flavors to develop. However, joven mezcal is typically best enjoyed fresh, as its vibrant flavors showcase the raw essence of the agave.

Is Mezcal Stronger Than Tequila?

Mezcal typically has a higher ABV (alcohol by volume) than tequila, often ranging from 40% to 55%, which can give it a stronger kick. The smoky flavor and intensity of mezcal can make it feel more robust than tequila, but its smoothness and complexity balance out the strength.
