Why is there a worm in the bottle?

The "gusano" (moth larva that lives on agave) has been part of traditional Oaxacan mezcal since the 1940s — it signals agave authenticity and adds a subtle earthy depth to the spirit. It's safe to consume; many drinkers share it as a ceremonial last sip. For gusano-free mezcal, browse our full mezcal collection →.
