BC SPIRITS NOTES

Surprised that I haven’t done this before, the Arbutus Distillery Grand Visco is a lightly aged in ex bourbon barrels. Aromatic juiciness of pears and peaches with kisses of vanilla make this a great mixer for your classic style pisco sours.

Alcohol - 43% / 86 proof

Color - Light wheat gold

Nose - Definite aromatic grape on the nose, similar to a gewurztraminer with hints of vanilla and oak

Taste - Complex floral and fruit, grape leaf, lavender and violets, hints of oak and vanilla

Finish - Very aromatic finish, hints of floral but overall, rich grape notes

Best Enjoyed - Rock this out in a Pisco Sour
