That’s what Alex Hildebrandt, founder of Suyo Pisco is here to talk about. He sits down with the gang to talk about growing up with Pisco all around him, the drink’s rich history in Peru, the care that goes into these grapes and the unique challenges of launching a brand in a spirit’s home country, vs. in the United States.Plus, Damon is going to London soon, which means he’ll be able to check one more site off his ancient aliens bucket list.Follow Suyo Pisco on instagram at @suyopiscoLove The Speakeasy but wish there was more?
