Pisco hails from the coastal cradle of Pisco on the border of Peru and Chile. Legends say that when the Spanish conquistadors invaded Peru in the 16th century, they planted vast vineyards in the arid country, and then distilled the wine the grapes produced into an amber-colored brandy. Pisco is traditionally taken on the rocks, but is great in cocktails, too.
