The Story

About Montelobos Pechuga Mezcal

Montelobos Mezcal is built upon 5 centuries of mezcal history and traditions. They craft the famous Mexican spirit using artisanal traditional methods, from a variety of different agaves that are grown organically with no pesticides or herbicides. Montelobos Pechuga Mezcal is no different. It begins its journey as their Joven Mezcal Espadin that's crafted from ripe espadin agaves. First, the agave hearts (piñas) are slowly roasted in underground stone pits for 4 to 5 days. Then they are crushed, extracting the juice, which is then left to ferment in open-air pine vats. Where the Espadin expression is double-distilled, the Pechuga gets distilled a third time with the addition of kosher turkey breast, seasonal fruits, and spices. This unique traditional mezcal is bottled at 95.8 proof and features a complex taste profile with notes of tropical fruit, almond, honey, orange zest, pumpkin, and nutmeg.

About Montelobos Mezcal

Montelobos was founded in 2011 by Iván Saldaña, a molecular plant biologist and distiller who used to work with two mezcal-producing families in Oaxaca and Puebla, Mexico. Partnered with Mezcalero Don Abel Lopez, they produce mezcal the artisanal way, abiding tradition and with sustainability in mind. They only use cultivated agaves that are grown organically, without any pesticides or herbicides. They also compost most of their waste and have improved the design of their palenque to minimize environmental impact.

About Mezcal

Mezcal is a distilled spirit made from roasted agave plants between two days and two weeks, which gives it a distinct smokey flavor.
What scotch is for whisk(e)y, mezcal is for tequila.

It can be made from different types of agave in different parts of Mexico, but most of it (60%) comes from the state of Oaxaca. Mezcal offers a large diversity of flavor profiles and ranges between 40 and 55% ABV.

Tasting Notes

The nose is fruity and complex with orange zest, nutmeg, and pumpkin aromas. Look for tropical fruit, toasted almond, and honey notes on the palate. The finish is herbal, peppery, and fresh.
