It is bottled at 48.36% ABV (about 97 proof; may vary by batch) in a 750ml bottle.

The Story of Macurichos Conejo

The agave is cooked in a conical earthen pit oven with pine and mesquite, milled with a horse-drawn stone tahona and fermented in oak vats with well water. It is distilled twice in a clay pot Filipino-style still, and the second distillation adds rabbit saddle (conejo) plus apple, cinnamon, banana, pineapple, orange and wild fruit. It rested 26 months in glass. It is hard not to reach for this pechuga again and again.
