Why we love Real Minero Pechuga Mezcal
- Produced in three distillations in which a chicken breast is hung above the still, and local fruits are added to the liquid
- Wonderfully full-bodied, almost similar to the feeling of honey in your mouth. A great destilado for a celebration, full of flavors of roasted summer barbeque, dried fruits, and apples
- Made by the Ángeles family in the mountain town of Santa Catarina Minas, Oaxaca
- Maduro en vidrio - resting in a glass bottle gives a very soft round profile to this authentic mezcal
- Distilled in small delicate clay pots, wild fermentation in open wooden vats
- Sustainably grown agave and production methods
- 103 proof / 51.5% ABV / 750mL bottle

About the Brand
Real Minero has been made by the Ángeles family in the mountain town of Santa Catarina Minas, Oaxaca since the late 19th century. Now revered as a luxury, the family originally started secretly, producing destilado de agaves as a necessity. A “chore” evolved into craftsmanship and artistry, and now, Real Minero produces beautiful expressions revered by all.
The business is entirely family owned. The palenque was founded by now great-grandfather Don Francisco Ángeles, known locally as “Papá Chico”. Brother sister duo Edgar Angeles Carreño and Graciela Angeles Carreño run operations current day, taking over for their late father Don Lorenzo Ángeles Mendoza.
