I wonder how and from where the idea of a specific sign to indicate what was inside, originated?<br /><br />For S.

(it's the Spanish equivalent of "neither fish nor fowl") It's very common in Argentina, I guess because chicha is popular in the North.Ananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8251307621040521480.post-14211874164609302242010-12-06T08:23:46.414-08:002010-12-06T08:23:46.414-08:00What an interesting story.

Pisco is grape brandy and is actually from the town of Pisco in Peru. Chicha is basically home-brew but Pisco is usually bottled and sold in stores, as well as availble in nicer Peruvian restaurants.<br />Thanks for stopping by.<br />JasonJasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05502288785571912221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8251307621040521480.post-16769699250259365222010-12-02T09:32:27.357-08:002010-12-02T09:32:27.357-08:00Very interesting the different alcoholic offerings...Very interesting the different alcoholic offerings in this region. Once in southern Chile, I was offered a drink called Pisco that was similar to a tequila but is made from grapes. As you did, I could only consume a small volume of the drink. The rest, well went to the Gods. <br /><br />RyanRyan O'Harrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05662902100182810430noreply@blogger.com
