Distillery: QuiQuiRiQui

A rather intriguing expression from QuiQuiRiQui. Usually, Pechuga Mezcal is by redistilling the spirit with a chicken or turkey breast hung in the still along with a selection of nuts, fruits, and spices. However, this particular one has instead been made with mole paste (made with chiles, sesame seeds, almonds, peanuts, garlic, onions, raisins, bananas, and cacao) rested in the spirit for two weeks before the second distillation, meaning it’s vegetarian!

Finish: Delicately spicy on the finish with a flourish of pepper.

Distillery Information

Quiquiriqui Mezcals are all single palenque, handcrafted spirits, produced in Oaxaca, Mexico. Established in 2012, we partner directly with families who have been producing traditional Mezcals in their communities for generations Our products are made to order in small batches. We are committed to making our Mezcals with a social responsibility towards the local communities. QQRQ has always worked hard to bring quality handmade Mezcals to you all at affordable prices. After spending 6 months in Oaxaca learning about and falling in love with Mezcal, its culture and history (and opening the UK’s first Mezcaleria) owner Melanie started the brand, working with the Mendez family from Matatlan who she met several years before during a research trip. The family have been involved in agave spirit production for 3 generations, working from their family palenque for over 80 years. Using only traditional production techniques and secret recipes passed down through the family, each QQRQ expression is a 100% hand-made, organic spirit. The range from QQRQ is currently sold worldwide and has grown sustainably with a focus on maintaining its historical production and keeping its single palenque, family orientated values.
