In May 2025 we are showcasing the brilliant world of Tequila, Mezcal and agave spirits. These are some of the most exciting spirits out there with flavours stretching from light and grassy to intensely smoky. This show is a chance to really get to grips with these spirits and discover why bartenders have fallen in love with them.
Both Tequila and Mezcal are made in Mexico and come from the agave plant. The differences in origin and production methods mean that these spirits have their own distinct characters and even with the categories there can be amazing variety.
Mezcal is the wider term for Mexican spirits distilled from the fermented juice of the agave plant. Tequila is one type of mezcal, made using only blue Weber agave in the state of Jalisco - where the vast majority of Tequila is made - and certain designated areas elsewhere in the country. These twin spirits vary enormously, sharing numerous commonalities as well as points of difference. Broadly speaking it can be useful to think of Tequila as cleaner and more refined, while mezcal is often more rustic in style with a pronounced smokiness.
