Description

Seasonal fruit sets the terms for Del Maguey Pechuga. Its natural flavors include wild mountain apples and plums, used only when in season and without substitutes. Those ingredients are part of a traditional approach to mezcal production. The fruit requirement is a defining detail of how Del Maguey makes this Pechuga.

Fresh basil and lemon lead the aromas. A suggestion of ocean air sits alongside a little fruit sweetness. Smoke becomes more prominent on the palate, where a salty note provides contrast. The texture is soft and velvety. Beneath the smoke, a subtle savory flavor recalls chicken, adding another dimension to the herbal, citrus and fruit notes.

Serve neat or over a single large ice cube. Take small, slow sips to follow the interplay of fruit, salt and smoke.

Palate: The palate experience of Pechuga is a revelation. Its smokiness is reminiscent of fine scotch, adding depth and complexity to the mezcal.
