More aromatic than tequila<\/strong> and without the characteristic smokiness of mezcal<\/strong>, raicilla\u00a0<\/strong>stands out for its floral and fruity nuances. But the flavor comes down mainly to the terroir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Historically one could say that RAICILLA <\/strong>is the grandfather of Tequila <\/strong>and the rebellious cousin of Mezcal <\/strong>due to its close proximity.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"raicilla<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

But what is really the difference between these agave distillates?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is mainly due to the following aspects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • MATERIA PRIMA<\/mark><\/strong> : La RAICILLA <\/strong>con sus preciadas 5 especies de Agaves( maximiliana, angustifolia, inequidens, valenciana y rodacantha ), el MEZCAL <\/strong>con estas 9 principalmente (Agave angustifolia, cupreata, potatorum, americana, duranguensis, inequidens, salmiana, karwinsky, rodacanta, etc.) entre otras y finalmente el TEQUILA <\/strong>con su \u00fanica especie de agave Azul ( Tequilana Wever).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • PRODUCTION PROCESS: Although Raicilla is very similar to MEZCAL\u00a0<\/strong>, there are small differences between the type of baking and the type of distillation used. As for TEQUILA <\/strong>, unfortunately due to its high demand, more than 95% is already concentrated in an industrialized process, that is to say, with autoclave ovens and many other systems that make its production more efficient.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • TERRITORIO GEOGRAFICO<\/mark>: La RAICILLA <\/strong>con sus 16 municipios en el estado de Jalisco y uno de Nayarit , el MEZCAL <\/strong>con 8 estados del Sur. Y el TEQUILA <\/strong>con 5 estados.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • AROMA AND FLAVOR: The distinction between the dry raicillas of the coast and the sweeter ones of the mountains is a perfect example. \"It's a totally different flavor,\" he says. \"There's no point of comparison between RAICILLA, el MEZCAL y el TEQUILA<\/strong>\u201c.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    The RAICILLA <\/strong>de la sierra crece debajo de los pinos y por eso adquiere una especie de sabores a pino, frescos, y simplemente tiene un perfil inherentemente bot\u00e1nico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Raicilla<\/strong>: it is a kind of mezcal<\/strong>, obtained from the distillate obtained from different types of agave, it is a colorless liquid, although its color can vary when it is matured in wooden containers, or when it is poured without maturing it, 100% agave.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

    Mezcal<\/strong>: is the beverage for which the production process does not matter if the plant is maguey or agave, but the cooking is rustic (stone wells, masonry ovens); the grinding is with a mallet, tahona, in a trapiche or with a machine with tearing blades.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
    \"Tesoro<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

    Tequila<\/strong>: is a spirit produced in a small region of Mexico. It is produced from the distillation of the fermented must obtained from the heart of a plant known as \u201cagave azul<\/strong>\u201c. This heart of the plant, similar to a gigantic pineapple, is also called \u201cmezcal<\/strong>\u201c.<\/p>\n\n\n
