An intense, traditional Peruvian grape Brandy crafted with a blend of Quebranta, Torontel & Albilla grapes that have not completely fermented. It has an aromatic birth with notes of earthy, musty fruits, herbs & spices; while a bold life adds hints of citrus, melon, grape, apple & orange blossom; that led to a long & minerally death with hints of white vanilla, cinnamon & chocolate.

You gotta love Pisco! If you don’t, that’s it. If you do, then this is a very good “acholado”, lightly aromatic, with hints of fruits, clean and warm, I wish it was more expressive on the rocks but, any topping can easily round it up.
Complex. The nose is inviting and sweet. The first sip is warm and smacks of heavy flowers and char. No lingering aftertastes except a bit of grape. Tingles the lips.
The joke was “we’re going to finish this tonight” - and we did 😂 Year end party for 2022 and Matias brought this from home
