Mole chichilo is the rarest of the seven moles, the deep-smoke-flavoured mole built on charred tortillas and chilhuacle chiles, served at funerals.
Chichilo is the rarest of the seven moles, traditionally served at funerals, with charred tortillas and chilhuacle (negro and rojo) chiles giving it a deep smoky-bitter bass. Tierra del Sol on Reforma and Las Quince Letras run chichilo as a special plate; few rooms keep it on the daily menu because the time and ingredients run high.
