The word "mezcal" has generally been used in Mexico for all agave spirits and continues to be used for many agave spirits, regardless of whether those spirits have been legally certified as "mezcal" or not. Agaves or magueys are endemic to Mexico and are present throughout the world. It is not known whether distilled beverages were produced in Mexico before the Spanish conquest. However, the Spanish knew the autochthonous fermented drinks such as pulque, made from the maguey plant. The result was Mezcal.

Mezcal producers have responded to the growing interest in this once-overlooked category with exciting innovations and a constant stream of products and new brand launches along the way. Growing consumer interest in ethically sourced products offers opportunities for ethically exported soft drinks. Companies operating in the beverage market are expected to take advantage of this opportunity during the forecast period. Leading beverage companies are significantly focusing on research and development (R&D) activities to promote the multi-functional profiles of non-alcoholic beverages that provide great health benefits. With current trends continuing, even more, new entrants to the agave market could be seen. In addition, distillers worldwide have experimented with various varieties of agave, and some distillers have implemented new techniques. However, concern for the environment is a critical threat to growth. First, agave plants take many years to mature. Thus, the overexploitation of agaves is a permanent threat.
This segment accounted for the largest market share in 2019 and is expected to experience the fastest growth during the forecast period. Joven Mezcal is more popular due to its easy availability. In addition, it is clear and has maximum aging of two months, unlike Reposado and Anejo that do it for a minimum of nine months and one year, respectively.
Most mezcal is sold through in-store retailers. This segment has been divided into supermarkets and hypermarkets, specialized stores, and others.
The mezcal industry is rapidly reaching pre-COVID levels, and a healthy growth rate is expected during the forecast period, thanks to the economic recovery in most developing countries. However, unprecedented situations due to the expected third wave and the next waves create bleak prospects. Therefore, this study seeks to evaluate different scenarios of the impact of COVID in the future of the Mezcal market from 2022 - 2027.
The Market for Mezcal has been categorized based on geography to offer a clear understanding of the global market; the world Market for Mezcal has been studied in four regions: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. The main players in the United States are investing in installing production plants due to the growing popularity of mezcal in the country. In addition, in 2019, the United States became the largest mezcal market globally, as imports increased by 50%, surpassing Mexico, which jumped to 10%. In 2016, the United States and Spain accounted for a greater mezcal export than the United Kingdom.
In September 2017, it was reported that mezcal could be found in many London bars. That same month the first London Mezcal Festival took place to celebrate the spirit. However, in 2019, a GQ UK article reported a sharp increase in mezcal availability in recent years in the UK.
Additionally, single malts are currently leading the growth of spirits consumption in China.

Mezcal is also produced in many regions, so consumers wanting to learn more about mezcal have many places to visit. Lately, wealthy Chinese consumers between the ages of 25 and 34 have been considering authentic and natural drinks offered by mezcal.

Mezcal is a traditional Mexican spirit derived from agave. According to the Mezcal Regulatory Council, global shipments of agave-based liquors increased 26% to 827,000 9-liter cases, and in particular, in Mexico, shipments increased 10% to reach 304,000 cases in 2019. As tequila continues to dominate the alcoholic beverage landscape, mezcal consumption has increased dramatically in the past two years. Mezcal is derived from the agave salmiana, a species of native plant collected from the highlands of central Mexico.
The growing flavor of mezcal in the United States should bode well for small producers in Mexico. While tequila remains the flagship product in Brazil, the demand for mezcal is growing slowly but steadily. Brazil has been one of the main countries in terms of beer consumption, which makes it very lucrative for the sale of mezcal.
Despite the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, an increase in beer imports has been reported, creating lucrative opportunities for mezcal in Brazil. The Middle East and Africa region have some of the world's emerging economies. Increasing disposable income and growing demand for premium alcohol among ex-pats in these regions is expected to increase mezcal industry demand.
