Mezcal pechugais traditionally made for specific occasions: funerals, weddings, all kinds of celebrations; distilled in 2020, at the start of the pandemic, this true batch of pechuga was originally conceived as a gift to be shared in the wedding celebration of two of Sandra’s dear friends. Sandra nicknamed the batch "Pechuga del Amor." The flavors were inspired by Sandra’s own visit to a marketplace in Morocco, where she drew similarities between the roses she found and the roses from her grandmother’s garden in Castilla.

While the pandemic changed their wedding plans, the batch was reimagined as one of the inaugural releases for Sandra’s fledgling new label and survives as a testament to the endurance and devotion of love and tradition.
