Unveiling the Secrets of Mexican Tradition in Every Sip

Mezcal and tequila, two renowned distilled spirits from Mexico, have been making waves in the Malaysian market.

With their unique flavours and cultural significance, these spirits have gained popularity among enthusiasts and casual drinkers.

The growing interest can be attributed to a combination of factors, including the rise of cocktail culture, increased exposure through social media and travel experiences, and a growing appreciation for artisanal spirits.

Mezcal stands out for its distinct production methods and diverse flavour profiles.

Unlike tequila, which can only be made from blue agave, mezcal can be crafted from various agave plants, resulting in various flavours and aromas.

Tequila, on the other hand, is made exclusively from blue agave and has unique characteristics.

It undergoes a specific production process that involves cooking the agave hearts in ovens, resulting in a cleaner and more refined flavour profile compared to mezcal.
