Tequila and mezcal sit proudly in the world of agave spirits, offering a very different experience from more common grain-based spirits. While they share an agave heart, the way they’re made creates distinct flavours and textures worth exploring.

Tequila is traditionally produced in Mexico using specific blue agave varieties, most often from fields around Jalisco and nearby regions. Expect a range that can feel fresh and citrusy in younger bottlings, while aged styles develop deeper notes of vanilla, caramel and warm spice. Many tequilas also carry a smooth, approachable character that works beautifully in classic serves.

Mezcal, made from a wider variety of agaves, is known for its smoky character. The agave is often cooked using traditional methods that can add a distinctive, campfire-like aroma. Depending on the producer and aging, mezcal can taste earthy, mineral and gently sweet, with complexity that unfolds sip by sip.

If you enjoy exploring bold flavours, this category is a great place to find a bottle that suits your taste, whether you’re planning a cocktail or simply sipping neat. Browse the range and discover your preferred balance of brightness, smokiness and richness.
