  • I believe the legal definition of "100%" in Mexico with regard to tequila is 51%.

    @Loewian: My understanding is that to be called tequilla it must have 51% or more tequila, but if it says 100% agave on it then it is 100% agave

Interestingly, when you asked the question, it was not certified Kosher for Passover, but now it is. (See here. The certification is given by SUPERVISORES EN CALIDAD KOSHER - their reliability is discussed here.)

  • +1 but this answer might benefit from a brief mention whether pure tequila needs a hechsher or not, for Pesach and otherwise. The OP might think that it does not (and I don't drink tequila so don't know but believe pure vodka doesn't need a hechsher - might or not be right since I also don't drink vodka :->) I do know vodka is not kosher for Pesach though!

    It’s the second; you’re not right :) Vodka from grain isn’t KP but when made 100% from potatoes (Chopin), sugarcane (Moses) or corn (Tito’s) it is KP.
