how to describe pisco
Pisco is a colorless or yellowish-to-amber colored brandy produced in winemaking regions of Peru and Chile. Made by distilling grape wine into a high-proof spirit, it was developed by 16th century Spanish settlers as an alternative to orujo, a pomace brandy that was being imported from Spain.istillation of the wine into pisco began in earnest around the turn of the 17th century, perhaps in response to these pressures. In the 17th century production and consumption of wine and pisco were stimulated by the mining activities in Potosi, potosÃ­ by then the largest city in The New. world
