This year's edition will see the participation of 17 wineries which won the 23rd National Pisco Contest.
The area —exclusively dedicated to the Peruvian spirit— will also feature tasting and pairing classes, among other activities.
It must be noted Mistura will run thru November 5 at Lima's Club Revolver and expects to welcome around 400,000 visitors.
Consumption
Olaechea also noted the National Pisco Commision (Conapisco) will in 2018 hold the National Pisco Congress and National Pisco Festival in order to promote its consumption.
"Both initiatives are expected to contribute to the national consumption and production of our flagship drink at an annual rate of 10% in the short term," the minister concluded.
As is known,
pisco has reached new
markets like Australia, Belgium, the Dominican Republic, India, Israel, Norway and the United Arab Emirates, among others.
