Description

Banhez begins its Pechuga with 100% espadin mezcal. A second distillation brings indigenous seasonal fruits and raw turkey breast into the process. The turkey hangs over the copper still, where rising alcohol vapors meet the suspended ingredients before condensing. Pechuga means breast in Spanish. The method belongs to an Oaxacan tradition associated with celebrations and special occasions.

Seasonal fruit contributes flavor alongside the espadin base. The turkey breast used during distillation adds another dimension to the liquid. The palate brings these influences together with balance and complexity. Its character comes from the interaction of agave, fruit, and the ingredients suspended during that second passage through the still.

Serve neat to spend time with those details, or pour over ice for a gentler sip. Share it during a gathering or celebration.
