The Sacred Ceremony in a Bottle

Yuu Baal Joven Pechuga Mezcal is a deeply traditional and ceremonial expression — a third-distillation mezcal in which a raw chicken breast ("pechuga") is suspended in the still during the final distillation, along with seasonal fruits, spices, and herbs. This ancient technique, traditionally reserved for weddings, harvests, and other celebrations in Oaxacan indigenous communities, imparts a unique savory richness and complexity to the mezcal. "Yuu Baal" means "spirit of the earth" in Zapotec, and the Pechuga is the most ceremonial expression of that spirit.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Extraordinary and complex — roasted agave, tropical fruit, and a gentle smoke with notes of savory herbs, spice, and a distinctive pechuga richness
• Palate: Rich and deeply layered — roasted agave sweetness, fruit, and a warming smoke with a savory complexity and a depth that is genuinely unlike any other mezcal
• Finish: Long and warming with lingering smoke, fruit, and a clean, savory warmth that fades slowly
