About this deal

Most of it is produced with a "boutique" type of distillate. Other types are produced with double distillation in copper and other materials. There could be a simple answer to this, but it’s become political and complicated. “Chilean and Peruvian piscos are different enough to say ‘we can both use this term’” Eric continues, “They are grape distillates that are largely unaged, but with different rules around grapes and uses. The same way Cognac and Armagnac are different for different reasons. You could easily give this info to the public. But, some brands and countries are fighting over the word and then there is a conflicting message.” Peruvian pisco won over 20 gold medals and was named the best liquor of the world in the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles 2011.

Still, there are big challenges, not least because educating the consumer is difficult with such confusion in the labelling of the category. Eric Zandona, Author of The Tequila Dictionary and Director of Spirits Information at the ADI shared some of his insight with me. “Pisco can be a really beautiful spirit when it’s done well, but one of its biggest challenges in terms of broader acceptance is the fact that Peruvian and Chileans fight over who gets to call it pisco.”

Using copper pot stills, their pisco is twice distilled to squeeze out every last drop of spirit available. This process creates an extremely clean and crisp experience. This is a premium pisco that won ABA a gold award at the 2004 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Regulation for pisco production in Chile is quite high. Chilean distilleries are required to grow their own grapes and are grouped into two categories based in aromatic expressiveness: Muscat types (Pink Muscat, Muscat of Alexandria) are very fragrant, while Pedro Jiménez, Moscatel de Asturia and Torontel are more subtle.
