More About Agave Spirits

Tequila and other agave-based spirits are crafted from the piña of the Weber blue agave, harvested, cooked, and fermented to produce a naturally sweet and earthy distillate. Traditionally distilled in pot stills, agave spirits can be enjoyed unaged as a "blanco" or matured in oak for added complexity.

Tequila vs. Mezcal: What’s the Difference?

While both spirits come from agave, the key differences are:

  • Tequila – Made exclusively from Weber blue agave and typically distilled in column or pot stills.
  • Mezcal – Can be made from various agave species and often features a smoky profile from traditional underground roasting.

Whichever style you prefer, this kit provides the perfect foundation for crafting an authentic, high-quality agave spirit at home.
