Wine's Bigger Sister, Pisco
Pisco, pronounced PEES-ko, is a centuries-old tradition deeply embedded in the cultural fabric of Chile. This exquisite brandy is crafted from 100% pure grape must, harvested at the peak of ripeness to capture the essence of the fruit. The meticulous process begins with the selection of the finest grape varieties, which are then fermented using natural yeasts that impart a distinct character to the spirit. Unlike many other spirits that rely on oak aging, Pisco is typically aged in neutral vessels, allowing the true flavors of the grapes to shine through. This method preserves the unique terroir, reflecting the soil composition, climate, and the skill of the distiller.
