Master Distiller Johnny Schuler crafts its piscos from estate-grown grapes with traditional methods. This expression was formerly known as Pisco Portón.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcholado is the Peruvian style that blends grape varieties. Each bottle takes about 3 kilos (7 lbs) of Quebranta and Torontel grapes. It is distilled from 100% fully fermented grape juice, pure wine and never pomace, in both traditional falca stills and alambique copper pot stills, single distilled straight to 40% ABV. It then rests for at least nine months in stainless steel, four months for each varietal and five more after blending, with no additives of any kind: no color, water, sugar or wood flavoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAromas of apple, lemongrass, golden raisins and white pepper lead to a super dry, structured palate of citrus, spice and subtle banana, with a lingering citrusy, peppery and floral finish. It earned 93 points at the 2019 Ultimate Spirits Challenge and is one of the most decorated piscos exported from Peru to the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSustainably harvested and hand-crafted, it is the classic base for a Pisco Sour, and equally good in a Chilcano with ginger ale and lime, or sipped neat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Floral, citrus, fresh grape.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright fruit, gentle florals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clean and dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Destilería La Caravedo, Ica Valley, Peru (est. 1684)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pisco acholado\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrapes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Quebranta and Torontel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single distilled to proof in copper pot stills; no additives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShake a Pisco Sour, mix a Chilcano with ginger ale and lime, or sip it neat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does acholado mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA pisco blended from several grape varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow old is the distillery?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in 1684, the oldest working distillery in the Americas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre there additives?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo water, sugar or coloring is added.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cognac\"\u003eCognac \u0026amp; Brandy collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caravedo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68039719878965,"sku":"VWS_200420184","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-29534.webp?v=1793834674","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/caravedo-acholado-pisco-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
