For master distiller Fabiola Torres Monfil (Faby) and her family, the making of Pechuga mezcal is a moment of celebration, a culmination of the production season. This distillate is a token of gratitude to nature for providing the essential agaves, water and firewood every year. On May 3rd, Santa Cruz Day, Zinacantan opens its doors to the community for a party filled with food, mezcal, and music. A celebration that roots back over 300 years, even before agave distillates became trendy. Annually, Zinacantan distills 80 liters of Pechuga, a double distillate made with Maguey Papalometl (Agave potatorum). This mezcal is distilled with a wild and organic turkey smothered in mole poblano, prepared from a secret recipe by Faby’s mother. The result is an exquisite 48 AVB distillate that truly captures the wild and adventurous spirit of this community.

A little piece of the 60 Minutes interview with Graciela Angeles Carreño from

“Mezcal producers preserve traditional methods as demand for liquor grows / 60 Minutes”

“The Carreño family distills in clay pots. eleven-thousand liters of mezcal a year, some 8,000 bottles. Many go for upwards of a hundred dollars.
making artisanal mezcal is part science, part intuition. and it comes with a funk…which we saw and smelled inside carreño’s fermentation room.
Graciela Ángeles Carreño (in Spanish/English translation): Right now it’s not too fermented, you can put your mouth here and try it.
Cecilia Vega: Very bitter.
Graciela Ángeles Carreño (in Spanish/English translation): Yes, and you can taste the alcohol.
Cecilia Vega: It tastes like beer.
Graciela Ángeles Carreño: Yeah.
Carreño showed us how she knows when it’s ready for the next step.
Graciela Ángeles Carreño (in Spanish/English translation): If I put my ear to it, listen. It’s like a stomach.
Cecilia Vega: It is like a stomach. Oh, wow..
Cecilia Vega: How much time left for this?
Graciela Ángeles Carreño (in Spanish/English translation): I think maybe another four days.
Graciela Ángeles Carreño: (in Spanish) This is where the flavors are produced.
Cecilia Vega: This is where the flavor comes.
Graciela Ángeles Carreño: (in Spanish) This is like the magic part.
Cecilia Vega: This is your magic.
Graciela Ángeles Carreño (in Spanish): Yes.”
