Origen Raiz Pecho De Venado 750ml
Deer Breast Pechuga, Rooted in Tradition
Origen Raíz Pecho de Venado is an extraordinary and deeply traditional mezcal — a pechuga-style expression in which a deer breast ("pecho de venado") 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 indigenous communities, imparts a unique savory richness and complexity to the mezcal. Origen Raíz uses venison rather than the more common chicken, producing a pechuga of even greater rarity and depth.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Extraordinary and complex — roasted agave, tropical fruit, and a gentle smoke with notes of savory herbs, wild game, and a distinctive pechuga richness
- Palate: Rich and deeply layered — roasted agave sweetness, fruit, and a warming smoke with a savory, wild complexity that is genuinely unlike any other mezcal
- Finish: Long and warming with lingering smoke, fruit, and a clean, savory warmth that fades slowly
