Initially popularized in South America and later appearing on New York menus in the 1960s, the Pisco Sour gained significant traction during the cocktail renaissance of the early 2000s. This mix by Limara contains lots of exclusives and unreleased gems, showcasing his evolving sound and innovative production techniques. Each track is carefully crafted to take listeners on a journey through deep house, organic grooves, and progressive tones, reflecting Limara's unique ability to blend the traditional with the contemporary.

Jessica Christensen, Mixologist and Beverage Manager, and Robb Stites, head of Communications and Community at Graton Resort and Casino join Steve Jaxon and Herlinda Heras on Brew Ha Ha today. Jessica is a Sonoma County native. She is responsible for all of the drinks at nine different bars at the Graton Resort and Casino. She started as a bartender at Negri's in Occidental when she was 21. After a few years she worked at Calistoga Inn and Brewery. After that, she was recruited to the Graton casino and soon got into management there. The first drink served today, after the soothing and inspiring sound of the cocktail shaker, is an Apricot Pisco cocktail. Pisco is a distilled spirit from Peru with a flavor that is close to rum. Robb Stites had a background in public relations before coming to the casino about two years ago. He describes the philanthropy and in-kind donations that they do as an expression of their commitment to the community. Jessica describes the Apricot Pisco cocktail that is in Steve's glass. It is made with Pisco, Luxardo apricot liqueur, fresh lemon, some acqua fava for the foam and some simple syrup. Acqua fava is technically garbano bean juice, which can produce a foamy texture. (Sometimes bartenders use egg whites for foam, but many people prefer this vegan alternative.) Visit Homerun Pizza, home of the Knuckleball! Fresh pizza dough made from scratch daily, la pizza è deliziosa! There are several bars in the resort; G-Bar is a sports bar and Sky Bar in the lobby has won several polls from Casino Player magazine. Sky Bar is a lounge bar at the center of the venue, Lobby Bar is a little more for craft cocktails, away from the gaming floor. There are also frequent concerts and comedy shows. The swimming pool is open not only to hotel guests now. You can buy day passes now for a cabaña, a lounger or a day bed, those are available seven days a week. Guests can bring food in from another restaurant or order from the poolside menu. The pool bar is right nearby. See our sponsor Victory House at Poppy Bank Epicenter online, for their latest viewing and menu options. The next cocktail they taste is a new take on a traditional recipe, called a Jalapeño Margarita. It will soon be on the Lobby Bar menu. It has Jalapeño-infused tequila, plus Cointreau, lime juice and agave. Floating on top, there is an Aperol and lime citrus foam. Russian River Brewing Co. is open in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Visit their website for up-to-date hours, menus, beers and more. Jessica describes the pool menu, which is the same as last year and is designed to be quick, fresh and delicious. Kiwi, blueberry, watermelon, mango and spiked lemonade. They also have a cocktail competition called Full Tilt. The first year the competitors were mostly from north bay but this year they will open it to bartenders from all over the Bay Area. One portion of the competition will be Iron Chef style, where the competitors get a set of ingredients they have to work with. This year it will focus on agave-based drinks. The Campari group is the sponsor.

Pietra Possamai is the winemaker at Bodega Murga in the Pisco Valley of Peru. Born in Brazil, she has led the winemaking operations at Bodega Murga, which also distills pisco, since the beginning, in 2019. Her 32 different labels of natural wines using only six of the eight grapes that are used in pisco production. These criolla varieties are mostly unexplored in winemaking, so the possible combinations of what they can be coerced from them is full of potential. Pietra experiments with skin contact, early harvests, co-fermentations, and aging in amphora. She makes Pét-nat, blends and single varietal wines using these grapes. The results have been pretty incredible. She is making wines that could only be made in Peru. They are appearing at all of the best restaurants in Lima and a few of her wines, like the orange Sophia L'Orange, are appearing on some wine lists in the U.S., Europe and Dubai. She is helping change the wine culture in Lima, which had been quite stale in my opinion.I wrote a story a year ago about Peru's wine awakening. It's quite exciting for me to watch. Even though Peru has the deepest history of viticulture in the Americas, the wine has only become something to write about in the last five years or so. Pepe Moquillaza kind of kicked off the movement, making natural wines from Quebranta and Albilla grapes, and now all sorts of wines are coming out of the woodwork, and most are utilizing criolla grapes. I went to visit Murga's vineyards last year and they are quite special. In the interview we talk a little about the Joyas de Murga vineyard, it's short trek from the bodega, but it's completely encircled by towering sand dunes. It got its nickname from the hoyas of the Canary Islands, vines circled by stone walls. If you have a chance, check Pietra's wines from Bodega Murga, and just Peruvian wine in general. It's entered into a new era and it can finally co-exist alongside Peruvian food, which, let's face it, is a high bar.Read more at New Worlder.

Kami Kenna oversees sales and marketing for Piscologia, a women-owned and produced brand out of Peru. Follow Kami and Piscologia. You can nerd out all the way be getting certified in Pisco for free. For simplicity's sake, the following piece will focus on Peruvian Pisco with occasional notes and comparisons drawn to Chile. Already feeling a case of TL;DR coming on? Let me read it to you. First things firstWhat is Pisco? A grape brandy that can be made in both Peru and Chile. Grape-based brandies can be made anywhere but Pisco is a protected category, much like Cognac, also a grape brandy, which can only come from the Cognac region of France. Pisco is made like any other spirit, by fermenting an item (grain, fruit, sugarcane, agave, etc.) and then distilling it. In Peru, one or more of the allowed eight grape varietals are fermented by yeasts drinking the grape's juice, its bi-product being wine. The jump is made from wine to brandy when the wine is boiled and its condensed distilled vapors are trapped, yielding the higher-proof yielded spirit of Pisco. Therefore, when drinking most Piscos, you will get a lot of wine notes. Distillation can take place in a variety of tin and copper stills, but Peru also employs a style of its own called a Falca.Part of the conversation that is important to have around Pisco, is one that we're used to having with wine. Depending on what grape(s) are used, where they are raised, and how they are fermented, can significantly impact its flavor. People who are into wine will taste different vintages from the same winery or try multiples of the same style from different wineries or regions to see how things change.There are 3 styles of Pisco that are made in Peru: * Puro: a single grape varietal. This is the most popular way to drink Pisco in Peru. They are made from dryer wines. * Mosto Verde: made from sweeter wine, thus more of a dessert style.* Acholado: a blend that may be made from two or more Puros, or two or more Mosto Verdes.Eight varieties of grapes can be used to make Pisco in Peru. They are classified as aromatic and non-aromatic. In a portion of Kami's and my conversation that didn't make the final cut, Kami points out that she thinks of them as aromatic and less aromatic. * Aromatic: Albilla, Torontel, Italia, and Moscatel* Less/non-aromatic: Quebranta, Uvina, Mollar, and Negra CriollaHistoryGrapes arrived in Peru and Chile via the Spanish, wine being both a part of their daily life and religious ceremony. As grape harvest and wine production ramped up, much of the wine was being shipped back to Spain. To keep it from spoiling during the long journey, it was fortified with a high-proof alcohol (similar to Port, Vermouth, Sherry, Madeira, etc.). This necessitated the need to distill. But the push to Pisco came, as with many changes, when restrictions and taxes were placed on wine from these territories, because their popularity began to threaten winemakers in Spain. Thus they lobbied the Spanish crown to protect their own interests. The people growing the grapes and making the wine experienced a crash in demand and a glut of supply. To keep the wine they'd already made from growing bad and to have a use for future grapes, Pisco was born. While there is a romance to tradition, there are also times when it is not practical to hold on to them. A traditional way we may think of small-batch wine being made is by stomping on grapes to crush them. A more technological approach is using a press. On average, a press will yield twice as much juice, helping the vintner and distiller make better money.Kami was quick to point out when we talked that while it is true that Europeans brought grapes to South America, the local population is the reason the industry flourished since they knew how to cultivate the land. While the equator passing along Peru's northern border may leave us with tropical notions, the country has dramatically different climates throughout. Peru is home to the world's second driest desert, and most of the grape production takes place in these drier regions. Despite both being under Spanish rule for a long time, after independence came, Peru and Bolivia fell into a war with Chile (1879 to 1884) over Chile wanting to tax Bolivia when it sought to bring goods to the coast for export. Chile won this war and sentiments to this day remain strained. Who makes the real form of Pisco, Peru or Chile, is a source of tense discussion.Diving inWhen I pressed Kami for recommendations on where to start or how to go deeper, a suggestion she had was to focus on one grape varietal after you find something you like instead of rushing to explore the pantheon of flavors. There is so much out there that trying two or three of the same style, much like trying two or three pinot noirs, might give you a better idea of the spectrum of flavor contained in each grape.Think of it like mezcal/tequila. A number of categories are looking to the success of agave as a marker for what is possible. Pisco, like mezcal, is an unaged spirit (except for some in Chile). The craze around mezcal and people being interested in unique vintages is what Pisco hopes to capitalize on as it rolls out unique vintages.To the cocktail end of things, in Meehan's Bartender Manual, Jim Meehan writes, “In my experience, blends containing nonaromatic grapes such as Quebranta are necessary to balance the floral varieties that lend structure in cocktails like the Pisco Sour and Pisco Punch.”You should give the Pisco Sour and Pisco Punch a whirl, since I'm writing this in the middle of summer and highly recommend you try the refreshing ginger-ale-based Chilcano. It pre-dates the Pisco Sour by decades and is built in a glass rather than requiring a shaker, allowing the Pisco to shine.Want to read more? * The final third of Spirits of Latin America covers Pisco * Kami mentioned The South American Wine Guide during our conversation.

País, known as Criolla Chica in Argentina, and Mission in the US,  was brought by the Spanish conquistadores and was South America's most planted grape for centuries until an economic boom in Chile and waves of migration in Argentina brought new and interesting grapes to these nations. Argentina has plantings of the grape, California now barely any, so Chile is the epicenter of the grape, where it is thought of as the locals' grape – something low quality and common that has been around forever but has never made more than cheap, bulk wine or wine for local consumption.  País (a.k.a., Criolla Chica or Mission), "Mission Grapes" by Hey Fritters is licensed under CC BY-SA 2.0.   But in 2007, the 200+ year old vines caught the attention of Europeans who were making wine in Chile and they began experimenting. The grape was made into sparkling wine and then into funky natural wines, which gained a following in France and in the capital city of Chile, Santiago. Today, there is revived interest in this grape, and it is making everything from Beaujolais Nouveau-like styles to some more complex, spicy, herbal yet fruit wines with great tannins and acidity. In this episode we explore the origins of this grape and what makes it so fascinating.    Here are the show notes: We discuss the overview of the grape – it's called Criolla Chica in Argentina, Mission in California, and it is grown in Peru where it is distilled into Pisco and makes some natural wine, as well as Bolivia where it is called Missionera. We will refer to the grape only as País because Chile is the epicenter of growing!   We discuss the styles of wine that País makes: rosé, sparkling, lighter and easy drinking wine, and a fortified wine called Angelica, that can last for decades     The Grape Origins: País was probably the first vitis vinifera grape to come from the Old World, we tell the alleged story of Hernán Cortes hating the native grapes and demanding that better grapes be brought. He mandated that sacramental wine be made using grapes grown from cuttings from the Old World, so the high yielding Listán Preto was brought from Castilla-La Mancha and the Canary Islands where it had been growing to make wine to restock ships for the journey across the sea.   In the vineyard País is a big cropper with big, irregular berries. It has a lot of water in the grapes which can result in a low concentration of flavor The grape is easy to cultivate, is drought resistant, and has very deep roots, especially when grown on well-drained, granite rich slopes. It likes hot, dry climates. For these reasons it deserves our attention – it could have a bright future with climate change, although it needs careful management to be good. There are many 200+ year old vines in Chile, trained in bushes. Many of them have potential to be great.      Winemaking:  Winemakers must grapple with the fact that the wine lacks concentration of fruit flavor, and that it has a rustic, rough mouthfeel due to the types of tannins in the grape. It can also have low acidity or, if picked too early, too much acidity.  Techniques to manage the grape include carbonic maceration to increase fruitiness, saignee to increase intensity, and gentle pressing and traditional winemaking to keep the balance in the wines.  Terms we discuss: Zaranda – a bamboo mat that sits over the fermentation vat. Winemakers apply gentle pressure for less tannic, more acidic wines. Grapes are then crushed by foot and left to ferment in the traditional winemaking method Pipas — large pipe-shaped vats made from native beechwood. Used for short-term aging   País Wine/Flavors País is very light in color, and light in body. Depending on how the tannins are managed, the wine can be balanced or have really rough tannins The aromas and flavors range. The wines can be spicy and complex, with earthy, herbal, black pepper, and red fruit notes. It can also be simple with red fruit notes like pomegranate, and floral notes. It's often compared to Beaujolais     Food Pairings:  Mediterranean origin food. Think about Spanish tapas or Greek meze. Lentils, black beans burgers, beans, tacos, Spanish rice     Regions Chile Today, about ~7,250 ha/17,915 acres of País grow all over Chile -- from the Atacama Desert in the north to the southern regions of Maule, Bio Bio, and Itata, where the majority of plantings lie Was a much larger part of Chile's plantings until the mid 1800s when the mining boom made some Chileans very wealthy, and they used that money to set up vineyards and winemaking operations to make French varietal wine – Cabernet usurped País.  The grape was relegated to poor regions,  especially Maule, Bío Bío, and Itata where it was kept alive by the traditional local wine, Pipeño – fizzy, light, often sweet red made of País. The grape was so cheap and undervalued that growers and winemakers have no incentive to work with it  In 2006-2007, producers like Miguel Torres of Spain and young winemaker, Louis-Antoine Luyt who was trained in Beaujolais and is a natural wine advocate began making impressive sparkling and red of País. As the wine improved in quality, others became interested in making País and blends using the grape – Bouchon, Roberto Henriquez, and Concha y Toro are some examples One of Luyt's wine labels   Argentina  According to Amanda Barnes, author of the “Wines of South America”,  “Criolla” means a person or thing of Spanish-descent, born or developed in the Americas. Music, food, people, and grapes can be Criolla. Criolla grapes are a family of grape varieties that include the first vines, and part of that is Criolla Chica.  Producers that are experimenting: Cara Sur in Barreal, San Juan  Rocamadre in Paraje Altamira (Mendoza) from old vines Vallisto in Salta     California Called Mission grape  -- Established in 1769 with the Franciscan missions, Junipero Serra Died with Prohibition, today about 400 acres left, some producers in Amador, Calaveras, Santa Barbara, and Lodi still grow the grapes and some make early drinking, natural wine of it A traditional wine and the one that was esteemed at the time was Angelica, a sticky sweet wine that apparently tastes like molasses, dried figs, caramel, and nuts.
