Founded in 1540, Tacama is the first vineyard of South America, located in the fertile Ica Valley of Peru, south of Lima. Extending over 250 hectares, it lays claim to being both the oldest winery in South America and Peru’s largest. The region’s ideal climate and soil make it perfect for cultivating grapes used in pisco production. Tacama has earned international acclaim for its wines and piscos, including prestigious awards for quality and innovation.
To produce Mulita, grapes are harvested by hand in February, then macerated for 2-3 days, separately based on variety for aromatic grapes like Moscatel and Italia, followed by gentle pressing.
The grape musts undergo controlled temperature fermentation in stainless steel, before small-batch copper still distillation at strict temperatures to maximize each variety’s aromatic compounds. Single-varietal batches are tasted to arrive at the ideal blend for Mulita’s select bottling.
