O Pisco Sour é o coquetel nacional tanto do Peru quanto do Chile, feito com pisco (brandy de uva sul-americano), suco de limão fresco, xarope de açúcar, clara de ovo e Angostura bitters. Embora haja uma longa rivalidade entre os dois países, esta bebida é amada em ambas as nações como bebida nacional. A espumosa camada de clara de ovo e algumas gotas de bitters criam uma bebida visualmente impressionante e equilibrada em sabor.
History & Origins
The Pisco Sour was created by American bartender Victor Vaughen Morris, who opened Morris' Bar in Lima, Peru in 1916, and developed the recipe by the early 1920s as an adaptation of the Whiskey Sour he had made in the United States. The drink was later refined by his Peruvian apprentice Mario Bruiget who added egg white and Angostura Bitters. Both Peru and Chile claim the drink as their national cocktail, with Chile having its own variation using Chilean pisco, making the precise national ownership of the recipe an ongoing cultural dispute.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Floral and grapey pisco, fresh lemon citrus, and a light aromatic spice from the Angostura garnish. Palate: A clean, balanced sour with the distinctive floral-grape character of pisco providing a flavour unlike any other base spirit, lemon juice delivering bright acidity, sugar balancing the tartness, and the egg white foam adding a luxurious silky texture. Finish: Clean, lightly sweet, and citrusy with a warming pisco grape character and bitters spice.
Pro Tip
Dry shake the egg white alone first to begin the emulsification, then add the remaining ingredients with ice for a second shake, producing a thicker, more stable foam head.
