Pisco (Chile)

Pisco is a drink that is distilled from fermented grape must and juices. It is considered a national drink in both Peru and Chile, but the style and the character of pisco can differ based on the location where it was created. Chilean pisco is predominantly made from Muscat, and it can be distilled more than once, while oak-aging is also permitted.


Depending on the production method and the choice of grapes, its color and flavor profile can significantly vary. Pisco can be enjoyed neat, preferably as a digestif, but it is usually used in cocktails and mixed drinks, such as the classic Pisco Sour, Pisco Punch, or Piscola.
