The fondness for tequila in the United States is at one of its highest points since throughout 2021 it became the second best-selling drink throughout the territory and if it maintains sustained growth throughout recent months, it could displace vodka as the most popular liquor.
According to the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States, agave distillate was, along with mezcal, the second-fastest-growing category of spirits last year, behind only mixed drinks, placing it first. on top of the whiskey and cognac.
Both tequila and mezcal increased sales by 30.1% compared to the previous year, a growth that represented around USD 5.2 billion in sales, according to the Distilled Spirits Council.
The more than 5 billion dollars in sales represent the second-largest amount for an alcoholic beverage, only behind vodka, the next rival for the agave distillate that it will seek to dethrone throughout 2022, although the work looks complicated.
