Expert-Level Mezcal Insight: NOM Categories, Flavor Impact & Sustainability
This in-depth guide delivers expert-level information only you can provide, breaking down mezcal through the lens of official NOM classifications—industrial (mezcal), artisanal, and ancestral—each defined by strict regulations governing production methods and equipment. It explains how these categories directly shape the impact on flavor, from the consistent, cleaner profiles of industrial mezcal to the complex, terroir-driven expressions found in artisanal and especially ancestral spirits, where traditional techniques like pit roasting, natural fermentation, and clay distillation enhance depth and individuality.
