Discover the Craft of Tequila & Mezcal in Mohegan Lake

Welcome to The Agave Library at Craft Tacos & Tequila. We believe that tequila is more than a spirit—it’s a craft. Our library is a hand-selected collection of the finest 100% Blue Weber Agave spirits, ranging from the bright, citrusy notes of unaged Blancos to the deep, oak-driven complexity of Extra Añejos.

Understand the Spirit: Blanco, Reposado, & Añejo

To appreciate the craft, one must understand the journey of the agave.

Blanco (Silver): Unaged and bottled within two months of distillation. Expect the purest expression of the agave plant—peppery, citrusy, and crisp.
Reposado (Aged): “Rested” in oak barrels for 2 to 12 months. This process mellows the spirit, adding hints of vanilla and caramel.
Añejo (Extra Aged): Aged for 1 to 3 years. These are sipping tequilas, offering complex flavors of chocolate, dried fruit, and toasted oak.

The Mezcal Experience

For those who seek the soul of Oaxaca, our Mezcal selection offers a journey into smoke and earth. Unlike tequila, which is steamed, mezcal agave hearts are roasted in underground pits, providing a distinct smoky profile that pairs perfectly with our Korean Short Rib Tacos.
