Mezcal is basically a maguey spirit, and this is why, earlier in the country of Mexico, the term was used to refer to maguey spirits only. If you are looking to buy mezcal, it is suggested that you do so from a trusted and authentic distillery only, since very many shops sell illegal mezcal which is not actually mezcal, it’s just distilled maguey spirit.
