SINGANI

SINGANI 63 BOLIVIA, TARIJA Singani 63 is unique among spirits to be given both a DO (Designation of Origin) and a GI (Geographical Indication). That’s your assurance the grapes are grown at a minimum altitude of 5,250 feet, and only within the confines of the historic home of Singani in the Andes. Singani 63 80PF / 750ML Distilled from a single variety white grape-the Muscat of Alexandria-whose definitively aromatic character makes a unique spirit. Gold Medal Craft Spirit Awards

For 7 years Steven Soder bergh fought tirelessly to get this clear, mixable spirit imported into the US after first drinking it while shooting the movie “Che” in Bolivia. “Up to that point, I was used to drinking some thing that did one thing. I was going to have to call vodka on the phone and have that conversation – this was serious.” Soderbergh has even co-petitioned (with the Bolivian government) to the U.S. Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau to recognize Singani as its own unique category, not unlike Pisco and Cachaça.
