Even the inhabitants of Tequila, a small town in Mexico, knew that agave plants contained sugar that could be fermented. Yet they had no idea that they were producing the first local spirit from the plant's sugary sap, which would one day become world famous. For many years, it was only sold in local distilleries. Now there are over a hundred distilleries in Mexico, producing hundreds of different types.
Jacobo Lozano Páez, an art student, found in the 1950s that caterpillars changed the flavor of agave and began adding them to change the taste of the spirits. Tequila with worm is only found in mezcal, however, because Mexico's national drink cannot contain any foreign substances.
Lajita Mezcal Reposado is made from distilled and fermented sugar of the agave plants. Unlike tequila, mezcal does not have to be made from a specific species of agave or in a specific region. For production, the seeds of the agave plants are cooked in underground ovens for several days and then ground. This gives Mezcal its smoky aroma. The juice is fermented for several days in wooden vats and then distilled in clay or copper. This gives the product its rustic spirit and earthy, smoky character.
Oro de Oaxaca Mezcal is one of the best known brands of mezcal and is produced in the Mexican state of Oaxaca. For the tequila with worm, the Espadín agave is ground, roasted over charcoal, enriched with natural caramel color and bottled with a worm. The agave worm gives the drink its intense, slightly sweet flavor and is considered a delicacy in Oaxaca.
