The Complete 2026 Guide to Mezcal Delivery

Mezcal has become one of the fastest-growing spirits in the world—celebrated for its smoky character, handcrafted production, and rich cultural history. Buying Mezcal online makes it easy to explore bottles from Oaxaca, Durango, Guerrero, and beyond, all shipped directly to your home. This guide breaks down what Mezcal is, how it’s made, the main agave varieties you’ll see, and how online Mezcal delivery works when ordered through licensed retailers.

1. What exactly is Mezcal?

Mezcal is a traditional Mexican spirit distilled from agave. Unlike tequila, which must come from blue Weber agave, Mezcal can be made from dozens of agave species—and each one delivers a unique flavor. Mezcal is typically roasted in underground earthen ovens, giving it its signature smoky character. It must be made within certified regions of Mexico, with Oaxaca producing the majority of the world’s supply.

Mezcal in one sentence: A smoky, artisanal Mexican spirit distilled from roasted agave, crafted using traditional methods passed down for generations.

2. How Mezcal is made (simplified)

While techniques vary by maestro mezcalero, most Mezcal production follows these steps:

  1. Harvest (jima): Mature agave plants are cut down to expose the piña.
  2. Roasting: Piñas are slow-cooked in stone-lined earthen ovens, creating smoky depth.
  3. Milling: Roasted agave is crushed—often by hand or with a traditional tahona stone.
  4. Fermentation: The mash ferments naturally with wild yeast in wooden vats.
  5. Distillation: Double-distilled in copper or clay stills depending on regional tradition.
  6. Bottling: Often unaged (joven), but some Mezcals rest in glass or barrel before release.

3. Main categories & agave varieties you’ll see online

  • Mezcal Joven: Unaged; pure expression of agave and production style.
  • Reposado Mezcal: Rested 2–12 months in oak; smoother and rounder.
  • Añejo Mezcal: Aged at least 1 year; richer, deeper flavors.
  • Ensamble: Blend of multiple agaves—balanced and complex.
  • Pechuga: Distilled with fruits, spices, or proteins; holiday specialty.
  • Popular Agave Types: Espadín (most common), Tobalá, Tepeztate, Madrecuixe, Arroqueño, Cuishe, and more.
