Tequila and mezcal bring a distinct spirit of Mexico to your glass, each with its own character, traditions, and flavour profile. Both are made using agave, but the differences in how the plants are grown and processed lead to noticeably different results.

Tequila is typically crafted from blue agave (most famously in the Tequila region), then distilled to produce a range of styles from crisp and bright to richer, more herbal expressions. You’ll often find it served neat, in cocktails like a classic Margarita, or alongside fresh citrus and salt.

Mezcal, made from a wider variety of agave types, is celebrated for its smoky depth. Many mezcals are produced using traditional methods that involve roasting agave hearts, which can give flavours reminiscent of toasted agave, char, and gentle spice. It works wonderfully neat as an aperitif, but it also shines in mixed drinks where smoke and sweetness can balance each other.

If you’re exploring the wider Type range, these spirits are a great choice for anyone who enjoys something layered and characterful. Browse the selection to find the style that suits your taste, whether you prefer clean agave freshness or a more smoky, adventurous pour.
