Tuxca is highly contentious. There are a few brands that claim that the regions of Zapotitlan de Vadillo and Tuxcacuesco, Jalisco are the birthplace of an agave spirit historically known as tuxca. These few brands are actively working with the Mexican government to establish a Denomination of Origin similar to that of tequila or mezcal. This would mean that only spirits made in this region of Jalisco could be called tuxca, because there is historical significance of the term and the tuxca production in this area.
