Sensory Description:
The nose is vibrant and lifted, with notes of white flowers, ripe figs, and dried tropical fruit, especially pineapple and banana, supported by gentle hints of citrus peel and ginger. On the palate, it opens soft and round, with flavors of candied citrus, poached pear, subtle floral tones, and a clean minerality that reflects its high-altitude coastal terroir. The finish is long and expressive, carrying both the weight of the Quebranta and the perfume of the Italia and Moscatel, with exceptional clarity and structure.
Awards & Accolades:
Distiller’s Background:
Founded in Lima in 1880 by Italian immigrant Santiago Queirolo, this family-run bodega has grown from humble tavern roots into one of Perus most iconic producers of wine and pisco. Today, Santiago Queirolo remains fully Peruvian-owned and operates vineyards across both the Caete and Ica Valleys, two of the countrys most prized regions for pisquera grape cultivation. Committed to authenticity, the distillery uses traditional copper stills and distills each batch to proof, preserving the integrity and terroir of the grapes without dilution or additives. Their legacy, scale, and commitment to quality have made them ambassadors of Peruvian pisco both locally and internationally.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve lightly chilled at 5560F in a tulip or white wine glass to fully express its aromatic profile. This Acholado is a superb base for classic cocktails like the Pisco Sour or Chilcano, but also holds its own in craft applications with citrus, herbs, and bitters. Its floral-fruit balance makes it an ideal choice for mixologists, pisco newcomers, and spirits connoisseurs alike. For sipping, pair with ceviche, fresh cheeses, or light tapas to highlight its natural freshness and clean finish. A must-have for anyone exploring the world of South American spirits.
