The Asociación de Pisqueros de San Francisco is a trade guild of pisco producers based at San Francisco in the Wechua Nation, Nouvelle Alexandrie. Formed in 1718 AN, it represents the Wechua coastal distillers of the Costa de San Francisco and is the counterpart to the earlier Cofradía del Pisco of Santander.[1]
Where the cofradía is associated with the commercial producers of the Santanderian valleys, the asociación speaks for the Wechua tradition of pisco making, which favors traditional artisanal methods over standardized commercial production. Its members work the smaller artisanal operations of the southern coast, where the Pisco Mosto Verde style originated.[2]
