BUY CALISCO

If you thought you knew California brandy, you have another drink coming.


Distilled from the finest California wines and produced in the style of South American piscos, Calisco showcases the brighter side of grape brandy with notes of citrus, floral, green fruits, and melons, alongside bergamot, cinnamon and white pepper.  Calisco is rested in steel tanks for a minimum of 2 years, preserving the original characteristics of the grape varietals in our blend, resulting in a more refined and complex final product.


At 38% ABV, it remains smooth and slides effortlessly into the glass with your favorite mixer. While Calisco can be savored neat or over ice, it’s been intentionally blended for infinite mixability. It notably enhances the crushability factor of your favorite classic cocktails. When used as a split base with other clear spirits, particularly agave and cane spirits, it completely raises the bar.


It’s clear why Calisco is America’s new favorite brandy.

I’m officially a fan

I was getting tired of tequila and wasn't really a fan of brandy, always thought of it as a grandpa drink. However, Calisco was a really nice surprise! Its smooth and complex flavor completely changed my perception. I decided to make a couple cocktails for a dinner party, and it was a hit! My friends were impressed with the refreshing and smooth cocktails I made with it, it doesn't have an overpowering alcohol taste and blends really well. It's a new favorite in my liquor cabinet. Calisco has definitely redefined what I thought about brandy, making it a must-have for gatherings.

Grab your Calisco, let’s go streaking in the quad!!

Calisco's California cocktail brandy is a delightfully smooth and flavorful spirit. I love mixing it with fresh fruit juices, like a good pink grapefruit or pineapple italian soda, for a refreshing and vibrant cocktail. The brandy's rich undertones perfectly complement the sweetness of the fruit, making it an ideal choice for summer gatherings.

Brandy isn't my go-to, but this California grape one is surprisingly smooth. A pleasant surprise.
