Peruvian Pisco continues to shine abroad. Since last Friday, Hungary has been hosting the "Pisco Week," an event aimed at promoting the consumption of Peru’s flagship spirit in the European country.

As part of Pisco Week celebrations, the fifth edition of "Pisco Night" was held in Budapest.

The event is part of a project led by the Peruvian Embassy in Hungary, aimed at strengthening Pisco's presence among Hungarian consumers.

Attracting experts, influencers, Peruvian culture enthusiasts, members of the diplomatic corps, and a large local audience, the event took place on February 21 at the exclusive Pavilon Restaurant & Bar at Dorothea Hotel Budapest.

The evening featured the participation of talented bartenders from Pavilon Restaurant & Bar, who crafted a variety of Pisco-based cocktails, from the classic Pisco Sour and Pisco Mule to innovative creations like "Potion for Cusco," a signature drink exclusive to the bar.

A selection of dishes inspired by Peruvian cuisine was also offered to attendees, designed to enhance and highlight the fresh flavors and vibrant aromas that characterize Pisco.

The event included a performance by the Peruvian dance group "Sonqoy Tusuy," whose dancers presented Festejo and Landó performances, further enriching the cultural experience of the evening.

The Pisco Week will continue until Friday, February 28, offering all interested parties the opportunity to enjoy a special menu featuring a variety of Pisco-based cocktails.
