Xicaru Pechuga Mole

Xicaru Mezcal, whose name means "beautiful" in Zapotec, was founded by Fernando Santibañez in Santiago Matatlan. Fernando uses his grandmother's recipe to create small batches of mezcal, showcasing a deep respect for ancestral methods. Xicaru's mezcal is cooked in a conical stone oven using native Oaxacan woods, and double-distilled in a copper alembic.
