I got sick as hell, but I attribute that to the lack of soap in any public bathroom. But even if it was the pisco sour, I would do it all over again.

Are you telling me that pisco sours are so delicious that you would drink one knowing it was going to make you ill?

Because I need to try one if that's the case...

Yes. Sublime.

Seriously though, its a difficult hypothetical. If I knew I was going to get sick, maybe I'd back off. If, however, there was only a strong possibility of getting sick, then I'd go balls in.

Ok. That is still a hearty endorsement. Is this a beverage I can't really get in the states in a quality form? It's not one of those The Guinness tastes way better in Ireland sort of deals, is it?

I've seen pisco sold in some specialty liquor stores, but not at any grocery stores. I've not tried it here, but its liquor, so I doubt it would have the same transportation issues beer does.

That said, I can't say why I haven't bought it here. You know how there's something about place that adds to experience. I think that's it. I don't want to ruin the memory if, in fact, the taste isn't as good as I remember (if that makes any sense).
