First off, all Tequilas are Mezcals, but not all Mezcals are Tequilas.
Tequila must be made from at least 51% Blue Agave and must be made in the tequila region of Mexico. Anything less, or outside of the Tequila region is known as a Mezcal.
Mezcals can be made anywhere in the world, and be made from either green or blue agave.
The famous gusano worm is only found in some Mezcals - never tequila. The gusano worm does not eat the blue agave. They only eat green agaves.

What alcoholic drink is distilled from the agave plant?
There are a few but the most common is mezcal. It is a spirit distilled from the beer, or mash, made from the hearts of agaves. There are 3 basic types of mezcal; reposado, anejo, and white(or dorado[golden]). White and dorado mezcals are not aged but distilled and bottled, the golden is just colored white mezcal. Reposado is aged in clay pots or barrels for 2 to 9 months to gain color and flavor. Anejo is aged at least 18 months often in wooden barrels and is more like a whiskey. Mezcal can be made from any of a few different maguey agaves, [there are about 120 species] with other possible ingredients comprising up to 40% of the product. Tequila mezcal is made strictly within guidelines set by the government and within the boundaries of the state of Jalisco and selected parts of bordering states, only blue agave is used in making tequila.
