Copita Mezcal and Tequila Festival is bringing “a celebration of exceptional spirit” to the Briggait on April 29 with over 50 different agave-based spirits

Forget gin, rum or whisky, one of the world's hottest spirits is set to get a brand new festival in Glasgow this spring.

The distilled artisanal Mexican spirit made from the agave plant, Mezcal's name means ‘cooked agave’, with the smokiness the spirit exhibits coming from the fact that the plants are roasted in production, rather than steamed, as they are when making tequila. Brands confirmed so far include Tapatio, Ilegal, Ocho, Quiquiriqui, Los Siete Misterios, Ojo de Dios, La Higuera Sotol, Ojo de Tigre, El Sueno, and Nixta, with many more to be teased to the public in the run-up to the event.

"And if that all wasn’t enough, a team of top bartenders from Glasgow’s best cocktail bars will be mixing exclusive and exciting drinks from a pop-up mezcal and tequila cocktail bar on the day. Each ticket will include one free cocktail or craft beer."• Access to one of the 3.5-hour sessions • Official festival programme with info on attendees and masterclasses.
