BarSol Quebranta is probably the one pisco that I see in nearly every liquor store that carries pisco. It has never really impressed me, but it seems to be geared towards cocktails and I can say that it works great in all the classics (pisco sour, pisco punch, etc). The nose is pretty floral, maybe some pine needles, but pretty light overall. On the palate it's pretty thin, with a bit of lemon custard and berries. It is pretty smooth though, something I was surprised by in all three BarSol piscos. The finish is a bit of a letdown. It's short with some light burn, pear notes and some sweetness. After trying the other two, this one seemed to be too bland for my taste. Everything seemed to be dialed back, but in no way was it bad and despite my slight disappointment in trying it neat, it's still a very good pisco for cocktails. Neat I would put this at a 2.5/2.75, but with how good it is in cocktails, I'm going to bump this up to a 3.
About this bottle
Production was revived at the historic Bodega San Isidro in 2002 after having been mothballed for 34 years. Although certain aspects of the facility were updated, including the introduction of a modern bladder press to replace the antique basket presses formerly used to press the grapes, distillation is still carried out by hand the old-fashioned way. Peruvian Pisco by law cannot contain added water or additives of any kind.

虽然自己没有怎么喝,但是当伴手礼带到聚会上,直接把主人一口喝吐。闻了闻这东西确实不是人能纯饮的,就算皮斯科酸,亦或是caipirinha,也不好喝。 可能是我打开方式不对,但是我一直不是南美烈酒的粉丝。之前巴西的Cachaça,闻着像是呕吐物,也不知道是不是和chicha这种口嚼酒多少沾亲带故?Nie wieder!
