Xicaru Pechuga Mole Mezcal

Pechuga Meets Mole — Oaxaca's Greatest Traditions United

Xicaru Pechuga Mole Mezcal is a genuinely extraordinary expression that combines two of the most celebrated and complex traditions in Oaxacan culture — pechuga distillation and mole. A third-distillation mezcal in which a chicken breast is suspended in the still along with Oaxacan mole negro — made from chiles, chocolate, spices, and dozens of other ingredients — this is a mezcal of breathtaking complexity that captures the essence of Oaxacan culinary and mezcal heritage in a single bottle. Xicaru is a respected Oaxacan producer dedicated to traditional artisanal mezcal production.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Extraordinary and complex — roasted agave, dark chocolate, and a gentle smoke with notes of dried chile, savory herbs, and the unmistakable aromatic complexity of Oaxacan mole
• Palate: Rich and deeply layered — roasted agave sweetness, dark chocolate, and a warming smoke with a savory mole complexity and a pechuga richness that is genuinely unlike any other spirit
• Finish: Long and warming with lingering chocolate, chile spice, and a clean, savory warmth that fades slowly
