Demonio de los Andes Quebranta Pisco 40% Vol. 0.7 L

Discover the distinctive character of Demonio de los Andes Quebranta Pisco 40% Vol. 0.7L, an authentic Peruvian grape spirit produced by the historic Viña Tacama winery in the Ica Valley of Peru. Made exclusively from Quebranta grapes, this clear, aromatic pisco combines ripe fruit notes with delicate hints of toffee, nuts and tobacco.

Unlike brandy matured in oak barrels, traditional Peruvian pisco preserves the natural character of its grape variety through careful fermentation, distillation and resting without wood ageing. Demonio de los Andes Quebranta offers a rounded, expressive profile that works beautifully in classic Peruvian cocktails.

For Drinkero, this pisco is an excellent choice for the Pisco Sour, combining naturally with fresh lime juice, sugar syrup and cocktail foamer to create a refreshing, balanced drink with a delicate aromatic finish.

Produced in Peru's Historic Ica Valley

Demonio de los Andes is produced by Viña Tacama, a historic Peruvian winery whose viticultural heritage dates back to 1540.

Located in the Ica Valley south of Lima, Tacama operates in one of Peru's most important grape-growing and pisco-producing regions.

The valley's warm, dry climate and long winemaking tradition provide the setting for the cultivation of grapes used in traditional Peruvian pisco.

Demonio de los Andes reflects this heritage through its focus on grape character, traditional production methods and carefully controlled distillation.

Made from 100% Quebranta Grapes

The defining ingredient of Demonio de los Andes Quebranta is the Quebranta grape, a traditional Peruvian variety widely associated with the country's pisco production.

Quebranta is classified as a non-aromatic pisco grape. Rather than producing an intensely perfumed floral spirit, it generally contributes a rounded, structured character with distinctive fruit and subtle earthy or nutty notes.

For this single-varietal pisco, ripe Quebranta grapes are harvested and pressed to obtain fresh grape must.

The must undergoes fermentation before being distilled into a clear grape spirit. Traditional Peruvian pisco is not diluted with water after distillation and is rested in containers that do not impart wood flavour.

The resulting spirit retains the natural aromas and flavours of the Quebranta grape, offering a distinctive base for both traditional and modern cocktails.

What Makes Peruvian Pisco Different?

Pisco is a grape-based spirit traditionally produced in Peru and Chile, with different production rules and styles in each country.

Peruvian pisco is distilled from fermented grape must and is produced without wood ageing, preserving the character of the grapes rather than introducing barrel-derived vanilla or oak notes.

Demonio de los Andes Quebranta belongs to the Pisco Puro style because it is made from a single permitted grape variety.

Its flavour differs from vodka, gin and conventional aged brandy. The grape-derived fruit notes and rounded texture create a distinctive foundation for citrus-forward cocktails.

Quebranta pisco is particularly well suited to the Pisco Sour because its relatively restrained floral character allows fresh lime, sugar and the spirit's natural fruit flavours to remain in balance.

Perfect for Cocktails

Demonio de los Andes Quebranta is a versatile cocktail spirit, particularly suitable for classic Peruvian drinks and refreshing citrus combinations.

Pisco Sour: Combine Quebranta pisco with fresh lime juice, sugar syrup and cocktail foamer. Shake to develop a smooth, delicate foam, then strain into a chilled glass. Finish with a few drops of aromatic bitters. Drinkero uses cocktail foamer instead of raw egg white.

Chilcano de Pisco: Mix pisco with fresh lime juice, ginger ale and ice in a highball glass. The ginger and citrus complement the pisco's fruity, lightly nutty character.

Pisco Punch: Combine pisco with pineapple, citrus and a suitable sweetener for a fruity cocktail inspired by the historic San Francisco drink.

Pisco & Tonic: Serve pisco with chilled tonic water over ice, garnished with fresh lime or grapefruit. The bittersweet tonic highlights its grape-derived character.

Pisco Collins: Combine pisco with fresh lemon juice, sugar syrup and soda water for a refreshing variation of the classic Collins cocktail.

Serving Suggestions

Demonio de los Andes Quebranta can be enjoyed neat, lightly chilled or mixed into cocktails.

For tasting, serve a small measure in a suitable glass to appreciate its grape, fruit and subtle nut aromas.

For a traditional Pisco Sour, combine pisco with fresh citrus juice and sweetener, then shake thoroughly with the recipe's foaming ingredient and ice according to the preparation method.

For a refreshing long drink, mix 50 ml Quebranta pisco with ginger ale, fresh lime and ice in a highball glass.

Because pisco has a distinctive grape-based flavour, avoid excessively sweet mixers that could overwhelm its natural character.
