La Caravedo Distillery Tour
Tour Details
We'll meet at the time of your choice at the entrance of Hacienda La Caravedo, where we'll start the guided tour of one of the oldest distilleries in Latin America. Did you know that its origins date back to 1634?
We'll start the tour of La Caravedo by visiting the cultivation area. There we'll see the different Pisco vines, where we'll distinguish its eight varieties: Quebranta, Acholado, Torontel, Albilla, Moscatel, Mollar, Italia and Negra Criolla.
We'll then visit the original facilities dating back to 1684. The wine press, the press and the falcas are particularly noteworthy. All this machinery was indispensable for making pisco in a completely artisanal way. Today, the La Caravedo distillery is one of the most modern in Peru.
At the end of the guided tour, we'll enjoy a pisco tasting, which will vary depending on the type of tour you book.
