Tequila took off due to the demand it started having in the USA. Now the USA and Europe noticed they were missing on Mezcal, hence becoming more and more popular each day (plus Oaxaca taking more appreciation in the worldwide perspective). PS The overrated spirit of Tequila can also be made in the states of Guanajuato, Tamaulipas, Michoacán and Nayarit. Not just in Jalisco. Long live Mezcal, the father of tequila!

I'm wondering if I'm making a mistake but I thought there were over 250 varieties of agave but not sure if they are variations of the 30 varieties? Good description just wanted to clarify that because I swear I read that somewhere. I was trying to find some agave varieties that grow in my climate. I'd have to make mezcal in my climate because blue weber doesn't grow here. I found a 7 year maturing variety that grows here so that's kinda cool. So once I am more established and build a new house by that time I'll have some agave to pit roast in the ground. Thinking maybe plant enough plants for 5 or 10 gallon batch and then just make it tradition to plant the same amount of plants each year so I always have a mature row of agave. oh yeah I"m a DIY MANIAC Lui! lol

I like it quite a lot and am working on a video on it actually haha. It's very different from other agave spirits but quite tasty. I only have one bottle now but am hoping to get a 2nd one to compare

I got a bottle on a whim, was not prepared for how smokey it is, compared to tequila almost tastes like barbecue sauce.

Bourbon never had to be made only in Bourbon county. It has been able to be made anywhere in the United States and it's territories since 1964
