Q

What’s the difference between mezcal and tequila?

A

All tequilas are mezcals, but not all mezcals are tequilas.
Mezcal is cooked inside earthen pits that are lined with lava rocks and filled with wood and charcoal before being distilled in clay pots. While some large-scale mezcal producers have adopted modern methods, artisanal mezcal makers continue to use this more traditional method, which is the source of the smokiness commonly associated with mezcal.
