Traditionally reserved for special occasions, Yola's Pechuga Mezcal is an ultra-premium sipping spirit. It is made from 8-year-old Espadín agave and undergoes a third distillation infused with seasonal fruits such as orange, tangerine, lime, guava, pineapple, and tejocote, along with spices and a turkey breast suspended above the still.
This meticulous process imparts distinctive and complex flavors, with citrus notes brightening the smoke and adding rich complexity to each sip. The Pechuga Mezcal is bottled in recycled glass featuring an embossed label and gold foil, reflecting its elegance and the celebratory moments it is designed to enhance.
