Ever woken up wondering what kind of agave devil got you last night? Spill it – we’re all friends here.

Let’s break it down: What is Agave Spirit, Mezcal vs Tequila? Well, they all come from the striking agave plant.

Tequila vs Mezcal: The OG Party Starter

Shoulda quit before the Tequila shots…

This is the stuff that’s probably given you at least one memorable (or not so memorable) night. It’s Mexican, it’s made exclusively from the agave Blue Weber plant, and it’s got a reputation. You know it, you love it, you might fear it a little. It’s tequila, baby. (Disclaimer: no dogs were drunk during this photo shoot)

  • Tequila: Mexico’s pride, born from centuries of tradition.
  • Made exclusively from Blue Weber Agave
  • Produced in specific regions of Mexico, primarily Jalisco
  • Agave piñas are typically steam-cooked in ovens
  • Results in a cleaner, often smoother taste

Mezcal vs Tequila: Tequila’s Smoky Cousin

Ever had a shot that tasted like you were licking a campfire? Welcome to mezcal. It’s also Mexican, but it’s made from all kinds of agave, not just the Blue Weber. It’s got that signature smoky kick that’ll either make you go “Damn, that’s good!” or “What the hell did I just drink?”

  • Mezcal: The complex cousin that’s captured the hearts of connoisseurs.
  • Can be made from over 30 varieties of agave
  • Produced in nine Mexican states, with Oaxaca being the primary region
  • Agave piñas are often roasted in underground pits
  • Known for its smoky, complex flavor profile

Agave Spirit: The New Kid

Here’s where it gets interesting…

Like us, people outside of Mexico thought, “Hey, we can make that too!” So now, you can find agave plant farms scattered all around California. We can’t call it tequila or mezcal (Mexico claims those labels), but it’s the same idea. Different, but familiar.

  • California Agave Spirit: taking the best of these traditions and infusing them with California innovation.
  • Can experiment with various agave species and production methods
  • Reflects the unique terroir of California
  • Offers a new interpretation of Craft Agave Spirit.

Elevating Agave: Crafting California’s Answer to Fine Tequila

Ever looked at a celebrity’s mansion in the Hollywood Hills and thought, “That’d make a great agave farm”? No? Just us? Well that’s exactly what we’re doing. Our vision? To create the most exquisite agave spirit this side of Jalisco. Forget everything you think you know about tequila nights and regrettable shots. This is something entirely new.

And great things take time. We’re crafting something worth waiting for. A sipping spirit that’ll make you go, “Damn, that’s smooth,” not “Where’s the lime and salt?” Each day, our agaves soak up that California sun, developing flavors you can’t rush. Each plant is nurtured by hand, to be harvested at peak maturity, and crafted with meticulous care as you can check out on our Youtube Channel. The result? A spirit so nuanced, it demands to be sipped and savored. Notes of sun-baked earth, a whisper of coastal breeze, and a finish as long and memorable as a Hollywood classic.

This isn’t about shot glasses or salt rims. It’s about crystal tumblers, thoughtful pairings, and conversations that last long into the night. It’s for those who appreciate that true luxury is about provenance, process, and passion.

We can’t call it tequila. We wouldn’t want to. This is a new chapter in the agave story, written right here in the hills of Los Angeles on Mulholland Drive.
