Cy Bister. Totally agree with xicaru usesbut we also enjoyed sipping. Bottle, xicaru, Admitted newbie to Mezcals but also fresh eyes or in this case tastes and opinions.

Nice smoky notes and clean finish. I haven't had time to mix a cocktail with it yet, though. I had a Paloma Blanca at Emeril's Delmonico with this as the spirit, which inspired me to purchase this. Good enough to sip neat and cheap enough to enjoy in a cocktail. Flavor wise it has all the basic elements of mezcal going on. Its well balanced, not heavily smoked, and has a clean finish. Its not very complex like many of the more expensive mezcals but don't let that keep you from enjoying it. Definitely better for sipping neat than the Del Maguey and Findencio offerings at this price point. Rating Required Select Rating 1 star worst 2 stars 3 stars average 4 stars 5 stars best.

Xicaru

Xicaru Pechuga Mole is a celebration of two Oaxacan traditions: pechuga, a mezcal that is distilled with a chicken breast and traditionally reserved for special occasions, and mole negro, the iconic Oaxacan sauce. The agave Espadin used in this mezcal is cooked in an underground stone oven, tahona-mashed, fermented in open-air pine vats, and distilled over a wood fire. The mole negro is made from scratch over two days at the palenque, using molcajete-ground chilis, Oaxacan chocolate, and other fresh ingredients. It is added to the still along with a chicken breast for the final distillation. These close relationships give them exclusive access to spirits at lower prices. Learn more about Spirits Direct.
