Fidencio Pechuga Mezcal 750ml
The Most Ceremonial Mezcal of All
Fidencio Pechuga is one of the most extraordinary and traditional expressions in all of mezcal — a third-distillation mezcal in which a raw chicken breast ("pechuga" in Spanish) is suspended in the still during the final distillation, along with seasonal fruits, spices, and herbs. This ancient technique, traditionally reserved for celebrations and ceremonies in Oaxacan communities, imparts a unique savory richness and complexity to the mezcal that is unlike anything else in the spirits world. Fidencio produces their Pechuga using the same traditional methods that have been practiced in Santiago Matátlan for generations.

- Finish: Long and warming with lingering smoke, fruit, and a clean, savory warmth that fades slowly
