This Pechuga is made according to the recipe of Doña Delía Vargas, Emilio's mother. A cotton bag with meat and spices is hung in the wooden top of the pot still. In addition to nuts, pineapple and other ingredients, this also contains iguana, deer and turkey. Then the mezcal is fired a third time, absorbing the flavors of the ingredients.
All in all, this Pechuga is lighter than many others, with less sweetness and hardly "meaty".
