PRESENTED BY
Adam L Weintraub
Founder
Museo del Pisco & Patrimonio Suyus Pisco
Adam L. Weintraub is the founder of the famed Museo del Pisco (three locations in Peru: Cuzco, Lima and Arequipa), sharing his obsession with the world for Peru’s distinguished national beverage of choice. His bars are a Tales of the Cocktail winner and serially-referenced watering holes dedicated to broadening pisco’s appeal beyond the confines of Peru. Adam is a Seattle-based photographer – but his placement in the world of pisco brought his research, writing and photography together to create Pisco Patrimonio, a book regarding the culture and legacy of his favorite spirit. This was awarded "World's Best" by Gourmand.
And now, finally, he’s jumped the shark to create his own damn brand of pisco, Patrimonio Suyus, again hoping to improve pisco’s prominence throughout the world. Bring it on. And for good measure, it was just awarded Double Gold, "Best of the Best" by the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
