Nobody adds the smoke. 🔥

That campfire note in your mezcal isn’t a flavoring. It comes from roasting the agave hearts in underground pits, packed with hot rocks and wood and buried for days. The earth does the seasoning. By the time it hits your glass, the smoke is already a memory of the fire it came from.

Tequila is steamed, not roasted, which is why it doesn’t carry the smoke.

💬 Save this for the next person who calls mezcal “just smoky tequila.”

Tequila has one agave. Mezcal has dozens. 🌵

Here’s the split. Tequila can legally be made from just one plant, blue Weber agave. Mezcal opens the whole family: espadín, tobalá, tepeztate, and dozens more, each with its own flavor, its own patience, its own region. That’s why no two mezcals taste the same, and why tequila runs a narrower lane.

One rulebook keeps it tight. The other lets the plant do the talking.

ay, Poppi.

Tequila, Poppi, Tajín rim. Things escalated. Gut health intact.

Say it out loud when you order it. That’s the whole point.

All tequila is mezcal. Not all mezcal is tequila.🌵

Here’s the untangle. “Mezcal” originally meant any spirit made from agave, full stop. Tequila is just the branch that blew up: made only from blue agave, mostly around Jalisco, with its own strict rulebook. Mezcal is the bigger family, made from dozens of agave species, most famously around Oaxaca.

Today they’re two separate legal categories, so a bottle is one or the other. But the family tree is real, and it all starts with the same plant.

From here, every card tells you exactly which one is in the glass.

💬 Save this. It settles more bar arguments than you’d think.

No bats, no mezcal. 🦇

Wild agave and nectar feeding bats grew up together, which is why agave is one of the only plants that pollinates at night. Tequila’s blue agave is mostly cloned by hand, but mezcal leans on wild agave, and wild agave leans on bats.

Next time you sip, tip your glass to one.

💬 Drop a 🦇 if you didn’t know this.
