Author Rudyard Kipling once said that pisco is “compounded of the shavings of cherubs’ wings, the glory of a tropical dawn, [and] the red clouds of sunset.”
This Valentine’s Day, Cupid aims his arrow at a bottle of Portón. The pisco inside is round and velvety and has a luxurious aroma with notes of cinnamon, orange blossom, and citrus. An exciting alternative to traditional romance-enhancing beverages like wine and champagne, Portón is distilled from grapes and can be enjoyed neat or mixed in cocktails.
