A high quality, single varietal Pisco from the Tacama Vineyard, the oldest vineyard in Peru.
The name “Demonio de Los Andes” translates directly as “Devil of the Andes” a title originally given to Francisco de Carvajal. De Carvajal was a Spanish solider known for his violence, military tactics and love of wine. When he could not find Spanish wine in Peru, he would drink what the local Indigenous people would make, a forerunner to Pisco.
This particular grape eau-de-vie has been made exlusively with the Quebranta grape, a Peruvian variety prized by Pisco-distillers, sometimes termed “the original Pisco grape”. The grape is better suited to the climate of Peru, ensuring a more distinctively Peruvian spirit.
The spirit itself offers gentle white grape aromas, with a little funky grape skin, green wood, pepper, pineapple, soft flowers and vanilla.
Delicious served cold, or mixed up into a Pisco Sour.
