Nico, although this piece feels quite different from your usual food ones, it is still completely Pisco Trail: family, Peru, memory, and one very specific moment that opens into a much bigger story—your dad teaching you, when you were still a kid, the discipline that would follow you through school, work, and life. That realization is the heart of this piece for me. 😊

Gracias, Susy. I took a chance earlier in the year when I decided to expand Pisco Trail to include stories beyond food, so I really appreciate how you found the meaningful threads about Peru and family. Thanks to my dad, I also had my first Pisco Sour and he made us tacu tacu. Gracias for all your wonderful comments and support 🙏🏽
