The World in Liquor

Pisco – Peru

Another native variety of fruit brandy that’s common in South America is pisco—a type of brandy made by distilling fermented grape juice. It’s produced in both Chile and Peru, and has been part of the local culture in the winemaking regions of both countries since the early 17^th century. Pisco is aged for a minimum of three months in glass containers, and is completely free from flavoring or coloring agents. Pisco can be served on its own, but it’s a popular addition in cocktails like the pisco sour, or pisco punch.
