Singani

Singani

Specialised

Bolivia’s national spirit: grape brandy distilled from MUSCAT OF ALEXANDRIA grown at high altitude — the Tarija and Cinti valleys sit between roughly 1,600 and 2,300 m, which is among the highest commercial viticulture anywhere — with a protected denomination of origin. Drunk as chuflay with ginger ale. ⚠ SINGANI IS NOT PISCO. Different grape, different country, different denomination; grouping the three together is a common error.
