Understanding origin
Mezcal is a Mexican agave spirit shaped by its raw material, place and production methods. NOM-070 distinguishes Mezcal, Artisanal Mezcal and Ancestral Mezcal by their processes and equipment. These are production categories, not an automatic quality ranking.
Looking beyond the category
For a professional list, compare producer, agave, batch and method alongside sensory character. Avoid assigning one flavour to all mezcal: selection should start with the individual expression and its intended service.
For your venue
Request producer identification, batch specifications, alcohol strength and format, origin documentation and supply terms. ACHKA confirms every proposal before committing to availability or price.
