While you might have heard of the Spirit Pisco, there’s a fair chance that you don’t really know a lot.
Sure, you might know that Pisco is basically a young brandy. You might even know that it’s mainly produced in Peru or Chile.
But you probably didn’t know that there are eight approved grape varietals that range in taste from pepper and smoke to almond and roasted walnut.
You also probably didn’t know that there are five different Pisco growing regions with 42 valleys and over 500 producers, most of whom are small batch.
And in the midst of all that liquid is the Peruvian Pisco brand Suyo that aims to help you understand a little more about what Pisco can offer.
To find out more, we talked to Alex Hildebrandt and Ian Leggett from Suyo about small batch producers, grape varietals, and creating an impact in the US market.
