The Truth About the Worm in Tequila (It’s Not What You Think)
from Tasting Tequila with Brad · host Bradley Niccum
The truth about the worm in tequila might surprise you. There is no worm in real tequila — the tequila worm myth actually comes from mezcal, not 100% blue weber agave tequila. Most people believe tequila has a worm in the bottle, but that’s completely false. In this episode of Tasting Tequila with Brad, I break down where the worm myth started, why tequila never had a worm, and how mezcal marketing created decades of confusion. We’ll cover: • The real origin of the mezcal worm • Why tequila regulations don’t allow it • The difference between tequila and mezcal • Why this myth refuses to die • What’s actually in 100% blue weber agave tequila If you love tequila education, additive-free tequila, NOM breakdowns, distillery insights, and myth-busting content — subscribe and join the agave community. #Tequila #TequilaMyths #WormInTequila #TequilaFacts #Mezcal #MezcalVsTequila #AgaveSpirits #BlueWeberAgave #TequilaEducation #AdditiveFreeTequila #TequilaTruth #TequilaHistory #TequilaExplained #TastingTequilaWithBrad #TequilaLovers © Tasting Tequila with Brad
