Sabelotodo Pechuga

Verdict

Pechuga as a form depends on the base not flinching. Félix Cruz runs the espadín base at full proof and the pechuga benefits, the fruit and bird charges sit on a foundation strong enough to hold them. Honors the Real Minero logic without copying it. No consensus score; our score lands at 4.0.

Tasting notes

Nose: Cooked agave with faint poultry, a warm spice rack

Palate: 47–52% is on the high end for pechuga and it works, the meat-and-fruit charge reads as layered rather than muted by alcohol cut. Kitchen legible in the glass

Finish: Warming, lightly savory. Long

The bottom line

Smart pechuga pick in the Sabelotodo catalog
