Mezcal (from Nahuatl mexcalli, "earth roast maguey hearts"), wrongly known as 'mescal', is a Mexican distilled spirit protected by International Denomination of Origin made from agave (maguey) plants. Its production and consumption is popularly associated with the Mexican state of Oaxaca. However, commercial and private production of mezcal is known over a wide area of Mexico outside of tequila-producing areas (primarily the states of Jalisco and Guanajuato). There are many different species of agave plant, and each produces a different flavor of mezcal. The term mezcal generally refers to all agave-based distilled liquors that are not tequila (a mezcal variant allowed to be made only from the blue agave plant in the town of Tequila and the surrounding region of Jalisco).
