In order to promote Peruvian pisco in the Netherlands and strengthen the skills of the bartenders of the Hilton Hotel in The Hague in the preparation of Pisco Sour, on October 30 a workshop and a pisco tasting took place at the “Blue Blood” restaurant of the hotel. The purpose of the activity was to optimize the preparation technique of Peruvian flagship drink and to provide information on the quality, origin and denomination of the various types of Peruvian pisco.
After the theoretical sessions and the tasting, the participants achieved, through the pisco tasting, a better understanding of the sensory differences and applications in cocktails of each of the types of Peruvian pisco. In the practical tests, the bartenders in attendance were able to replicate the Pisco Sour with a high quality presentation and flavor. During the event, attendees were offered a sample of Peruvian gastronomy by the renowned Peruvian chef of the Hilton Hotel, Luis Rojas.
The inauguration was in charge of Minister Oscar Paredes of the Embassy of Peru in the Netherlands and was attended by the Economic and Commercial Counselor OCEX Rotterdam, Gycs Gordon, and his team.
