Is mezcal stronger than tequila?

Not always. Both tequila and mezcal commonly sit around 40% ABV (80 proof), though some artisanal mezcals can be higher proof. Mezcal may taste stronger because of its smoky character.

Many mezcals are smoky because the agave is roasted in underground pit ovens over wood and charcoal, which can create a signature smoke flavor.

Is tequila made from mezcal?

No. Tequila and mezcal are both agave spirits, but tequila is a regulated category made only from Blue Weber agave in approved regions, while mezcal can use many agave varieties and methods.

What’s better for margaritas: tequila or mezcal?

Tequila is the classic choice for a clean, bright Margarita. Mezcal makes a bolder, smoky Margarita if you want more depth.

Is mezcal always smoky?

No. Smoke levels vary by producer and method. Some mezcals are lightly smoky, while others are more intense.

What does “100% agave” mean?

It means the spirit is made entirely from agave sugars with no added sugars—generally a sign of higher quality tequila.
