About this bottle
Rey Campero Pechuga de Codorniz is a pechuga-style mezcal made in Oaxaca, distilled with a raw quail breast suspended inside the still during the final run, along with fruits and spices, so the fat and aromatics infuse into the spirit as vapor passes through. Rey Campero is a respected small producer known for showcasing distinct agave varieties and traditional palenque methods across its lineup. Using quail rather than the more common chicken or turkey gives this pechuga a subtler, gamey layer over the mezcal's smoky, agave-driven base. It's a rare, distinctive bottle for mezcal enthusiasts chasing traditional Oaxacan expressions beyond the standard joven category.
How to drink Rey Campero Pechuga de Codorniz
Sip it neat in a copita, slowly, the traditional way pechuga is meant to be enjoyed. It's too rare and distinctive to mix into a cocktail — let it stand alone.
