Pechuga Añejo is a very special batch that was rested in oak for 2 years. Fidencio Pechuga is crafted annually to celebrate the harvest, it features a unique blend of fresh fruits, including indigenous quince, pineapple, apples, bananas, and guava. During the 3rd distillation, pechuga de pollo is suspended in the bell of the still creating a higher level of complexity delivering exceptional texture layered with the flavors from the fruit. The result - elegant, smooth and silky with notes of bright red fruit, vanilla bean and almond.
