Don Mateo de la Sierra Pechuga Review
This bottle brings it all. The venison, turkey, iguana, dried fruits, spices, and other ingredients added to the still during distillation infuse the liquid with intense notes of candied tropical fruit, goji berries, dried fruit, white pepper, and a kiss of smoke that’s present but not overpowering. It’s savory and complex with a beautiful nose. Buy a bottle and get ready to be impressed.
