According to Mexican law (NOM-006-SCFI-2012), tequila must have an alcohol content between 35% and 55% ABV, a range that permits brands to bottle at the lower end for the domestic market. This contrasts with regulations in countries like the United States, which mandate a minimum of 40% ABV for spirits.
