I probably have a soft spot for this one since it's my first big mezcal purchase. I've had a bunch of cocktail mezcals (any low abv mezcal under $50) and I enjoyed them but they lacked depth and complexity. This was also my first pechuga and it blew me away back then and while it doesnt hold up as much now that I've tried many other high quality mezcals, it's still very good. As with nearly all pechugas it is triple distilled with a chicken breast hanging in the still during the third distillation. My bottle is actually distilled in 2012 and has an abv of 49% (quality sipping mezcal isnt altered or watered down so the abv changes with each batch). I bought it in 2015 and have randomly drank it off and on since then. Unlike nearly every other spirit most mezcals actually get better after they are opened. Some of the harshness gets toned down and that was the case with this one for sure (there are actually quite a few very good mezcals that are aged in glass before they are released). At the moment I have about 25% of the bottle left. On the nose I get clay and what smells like what you get when you walk outside on a damp, dewy morning. The palate is where this one shines, with some spice (thinking clove), light smoke, leather and citrus. The finish is incredibly smooth, with a nice burn on the way down. It really just lingers for a good ten minutes after the last sip. Its definitely a quality mezcal and one that gets better with age. I would be curious to know if this has changed since the company was sold to Pernod Ricard. Either way, a very good mezcal.
