Tequila was probably the first spirit to have been produced in the new world,
and like Cognac, it must originate from a small, delimited region of the world.
Produced from the Tequilana weber blue agave plant, a relative of the
lily, Tequila is now generally available as either a mixto (contains
the minimum 51% agave plus neutral spirits) or a 100% agave, super-premium type. |

Aged 100% agave Tequilas are often enjoyed neat in a snifter, while mixtos typically
find their way into the most popular Tequila cocktails, like Margaritas. |
