Estancia Raicilla Pechuga 48% Agave Spirit 750ml Estancia Distillery
| Description: | In 2014, Rio Chenery left New York City and returned to his family home in Jalisco. Rio was witnessing firsthand the worldwide explosion of agave spirits and wanted to participate in bringing more unique Mexican distillateslike those around which he grew upto an international audience. With that goal in mind, Rio founded Estancia. Rio began with the Raicilla hed known since childhood and has since expanded the scope of the brand, remaining at the forefront of distinct Mexican styles and distillation to bring a diverse and educational selection of agave spirits to new audiences and palates. Estancia partners with local producers across Jalisco, contextualizing the enjoyment of these spirits with humility and respect. Tasting Notes The first Raicilla Pechuga commercially available in the Usa, this bottle is a limited seasonal release from Estancia. Maestro raicillero Alfredo Salvatierra roasts his Maximiliana in an adobe oven, fermenting the agave in clay amphora pots, then distills it twice using traditional copper pot stills. Subsequently, he adds an array of locally harvested ingredients, including toasted pumpkin seed, quince, apple, plum, lemon leaves, toasted almonds, chamomile, hibiscus, orange blossom and raw turkey breast suspended in the still, before running the spirit through a third time. A celebration of harvest and community fellowship, it is thrilling to experience the Pechuga tradition from a whole new point of view in La Estancia de Landeros! 48% Abv |
