Description
- Small batch pisco distilled in the Mala Valley of Lima, Peru
- Denomination of Origin (DO) Peruvian Pisco
- Distilled from 100% Quebranta grapes grown on Fundo La Esperanza, 14 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean and 100 meters above sea level
- Hand-harvested in 2021
- Maceration, pressing, fermentation, and distillation take place just down the road from the vineyard at the bodega of Fredy Puma, who has been distilling pisco for over 15 years
- After pressing, the wine is spontaneously fermented for approximately 2 weeks
- Single distilled on a copper alembic still
- Rested for over 2 years in food-grade polyethylene tanks that have been cured with the heads of previous distillation runs
- No water is added post-distillation
- A sprightly nose of saltwater taffy, papaya, and parsnip blossoms on the palate with mango skin and ripe pear. The finish is delicate but long, exhibiting a hint of the custard and floral notes of French patisserie, and a lingering minerality that speaks to a proximity to the sea.
- Non-chill filtered; 41.5% ABV (ABV may vary batch to batch)
