On Friday 11, the Embassy of Peru in Thailand organized a training session for the preparation of pisco cocktails, the national drink of Peru, in the Peruvian restaurant and Rooftop bar "Above Eleven" in Bangkok. The training was conducted by Peruvian chef Víctor del Campo and was aimed at a group of bartenders. The cocktails chosen on this occasion for the training were the "Pisco Sour" and the "Chilcano de Pisco".

The training began with general information on the origin and characteristics of the signature drink of Peru, the making process, and its different varieties, followed by a detailed explanation of the preparation of "Pisco Sour" and "Chilcano". The participating bartenders, as well as the management of the prestigious Rooftop bar, were grateful for the training received and showed in practice to be ready to prepare the best pisco cocktails.

The Embassy of Peru will continue to promote pisco in different restaurants and bars in Bangkok that have this product in their menus and hopes that many of them can join the celebrations for the "Pisco Sour Day" next February.
