About this bottle
Erstwhile Bacon Pechuga is a 2021 limited-edition mezcal made by an all-women team at Master Distiller Hortensia Hernández Martínez's palenque in Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca, using 100% Espadín agave. It's a pechuga-style mezcal, distilled a second and third time with local bacon and ripe mango, pineapple, and guava suspended in the still, so the steam carries their fat and fruit into the spirit. Only 300 liters were produced in June 2021. The result layers smoky, savory bacon fat and roasted agave against bright tropical fruit sweetness, finishing long and complex. A genuinely rare bottle for mezcal collectors and adventurous drinkers alike.
How to drink Erstwhile Bacon Pechuga
Sip it neat in a small copita, slowly, to catch how the bacon and fruit unfold against the agave over time. This isn't a mixing mezcal — its rarity and complexity are the point.
