The Best Mezcal Bars in Austin
Mezcal is a category of agave spirit that includes, but is still different, from tequila. While tequila can only be made from the blue agave plant and is created through a steaming process, mezcal can be distilled from over 400 varieties of agave plants and is traditionally roasted underground to produce a rich bouquet of flavors. Mezcal has been growing in popularity over the last few years, especially in Austin, with more restaurants and bars expanding their menus to include it. Whether you’re looking for exciting mezcal cocktails, or just to sip on a copita in peace, here’s where you can enjoy some of the best mezcal in Austin.
