Description
What happens when five spice and duck are worked into mezcal during production? Erstwhile’s 2023 pechuga answers with layered aromatics: wood smoke up front, warm spice through the middle, and a savory thread running underneath. Herbal complexity fills in the edges.
Bottled at 49% ABV in a 375 ml format, this release sits squarely in experimental territory, pairing the traditional pechuga method with ingredients rarely seen in the category. The half-size bottle underlines its small-scale, artisanal character.
