Agave Spirits

The distilling of agave is a proud tradition that has been passed down from one generation to the next for centuries throughout Mexico. Legally tequila can only be produced in state of Jalisco, while bacanora (the outlaw spirit) is exclusive to Sonora. Nahuatl for "oven-cooked agave," mezcal can be traced back to pre-Spanish Mexico and has become a name for a wide range of agave spirits produced across the country. This selection of artisan mezcal and tequila is the perfect introduction to the finer entries in the category.
