After a long trip I’m back in Peru. Posting on this corner of the blogosphere should resume its normal trickle.
I snatched a picture of the Peruvian customs form on the plane back from Madrid. Patricia pointed out an interesting restriction on the Peruvian customs form when we were flying back from Belgium in January but I didn’t get a picture of it until now:
Foreign made Pisco will be confiscated
“… las bebidas fabricadas en el extranjero que tengan la denominación de “Pisco” … serán incautadas…”
So any foreign (read: Chilean) made Pisco will be confiscated if you try to bring it into Peru. Pisco Sour is of course the national drink of Peru, and the unhappy word on the street is that Chile has claimed to produce Pisco as well.
Kind of like the Italian uproar over foreign-made Panettone I guess…
