'Pisco Disco' is a Los Angeles-based startup that aims to bring hard-to-find cultural drinks from Peru to the American market. The two founders, Gina and Mirejah, would travel to New York City and ask for a "Pisco" only to find that most bars and clubs did not have one. After moving to America, the two sought to fill this gap in the market themselves.
The Pisco Disco is a hard seltzer inspired by the Peruvian Pisco that it is named after. Pisco is a brandy that has found itself to be the most popular spirit in Peru. The Pisco Disco takes this high-quality spirit and turns it into a refreshing, bubbly seltzer. This drink is gluten-free, vegan, low in calories, and true to its roots.
The can of the drink features a llama which is a common animal to find in Peru, as the brand has referred to Peru as "the land of the llamas." This creature is highly sociable and fun, which the brand wants to be as well.
