皮斯科酒

皮斯科酒（Pisco）是秘鲁流行的一种由葡萄蒸馏酿制而成的烈性酒，在世界上知名度很高，堪称秘鲁的国酒。除秘鲁外，智利也大量生产这种酒。多年来，秘鲁智利两国就皮斯科酒的国籍问题一直争论不休，2007年，世界知识产权组织作出裁决，确认皮斯科酒的国籍权归秘鲁所有。

Pisco is a colorless or yellowish-to-amber colored brandy produced in winemaking regions of Peru and Chile. Made by distilling grape wine into a high-proof spirit, it was developed by 16th century Spanish settlers as an alternative to orujo, a pomace brandy that was being imported from Spain. It had the advantages of being produced from abundant domestically grown fruit and reducing the volume of alcoholic beverages transported to remote locations.
