Pisco Alto del Carmen Reservado is a prestigious variety of pisco originating from Chile, known for its exceptional quality and refined taste. Its production begins with the careful selection of the best grapes. The grape varieties authorized by the Denomination of Origin of Chilean Pisco, such as Moscatel, Pedro Jiménez, and Torontel. Once the grapes are selected, they are pressed and the juice obtained is fermented to naturally convert sugars into alcohol. Subsequently, the fermented must is distilled in copper stills. This process is carried out with precision to ensure the purity and quality of the final distillate, preserving the characteristic aromas and flavors of the grapes used. After distillation, the pisco undergoes a period of aging in carefully selected oak barrels, where it acquires subtle hints of vanilla, spices, and wood, adding complexity and depth to its flavor profile. During this process, the pisco also becomes smoother and rounder, reaching its full potential of flavor and aroma. As for pairing, Pisco Alto del Carmen Reservado is an excellent choice to accompany a variety of dishes. It pairs very well with fresh seafood, white fish, and poultry dishes, as well as with a variety of soft and semi-cured cheeses. It is also ideal to enjoy on its own as a digestif after a hearty meal, or to prepare a wide range of cocktails, from the classic Pisco Sour to more sophisticated creations that highlight its unique character and refined taste.
