Miske is an Ecuadorean distilled alcoholic beverage made from the sap of agave plants. Miske is similar to Mexican mezcal, but is made from the sap, called chawarmishki in Ecuador (Quechua chawar "raw" + mishki "sweet", whence the name "miske"), rather than the cooked heart (piña), which is used in mezcal.
