Pisco production in Peru amounts to
five million liters per year, from which 98% percent is consumed in Peru, and the remainder is sold across other latitudes, said Jaime Marimon, President of the Lima Region Pisco Producers association.
He said that the current production of the flagship liquor has increased, since years ago the production ranged between 3.8 and 4.2 million liters.
He also revealed that the goal is to get to produce, within five years, 15 million liters of pisco annually, and to position this production in markets as well.
He also specified that a total of 647 producers have authorization to use the appellation of origin of Pisco, more than double than the ones who have not certified their production yet.
