Description
Handcrafted in the rugged hills of Oaxaca, Mexico, Peloton De La Muerte Pechuga is a celebratory mezcal that transforms traditional espadín agave into an opulent, holiday-worthy spirit. After two slow, wood-fired distillations, Maestro Mezcalero Cutberto Santiago hangs a turkey breast (the “pechuga”) inside the copper still for a third pass, alongside local pineapple, cocoa, banana, guava, almonds, and anise. The vapors glide through this cornucopia, lending the final liquid a shimmering complexity that balances orchard sweetness with savory depth. On the nose you’ll find smoked citrus peel, clove, and sun-dried herbs; the palate unfolds with roasted agave, grilled pineapple, cocoa nibs, fresh stone fruit, and a gentle wash of sea salt before finishing long, clean, and delicately smoky.
Bottled at 750 mL and an assertive yet polished 48% ABV, this Pechuga shines neat in your favorite copita, but it also elevates cocktails—think a wild twist on a Naked & Famous, or a luxurious mezcal Old Fashioned built for colder nights. Serve it alongside rich mole, charcuterie, or even Thanksgiving turkey to mirror its festive soul.
