Bolivian law restricts the name "singani" to spirits distilled from grapes grown above 1,600 meters elevation, making Tarija's high vineyards essential to its legal definition.
Muscat of Alexandria grapes are distilled into a clear, aromatic brandy, often mixed street-side with lime and ginger ale into the popular "chuflay" cocktail. Tarija's stalls and bars serve it as the region's signature pour.
Why it's made this way: Tarija's high-altitude vineyards are Bolivia's main wine and singani-producing region, giving the spirit a geographic identity much like Peru's pisco.
