Pisco Sour Quotes
"Pisco Sours in Peru and even Chile almost always use Lime juice because yellow lemons are rare and VERY expensive down there...They also have a wonderful local bitters called Amargo by La Barra that is very cinnamon heavy in the top flavor note and particularly good on top of pisco sours..." - Dale DeGroff, Kingcocktail.
