RC Show 2026 Canada

From March 8 to 10, we participated in RC Show 2026, held at the International Centre in Mississauga—Canada’s most important HORECA trade show, featuring over 1,300 booths across five halls.

We were part of the Peru Pavilion, led by the Embassy of Peru in Canada in coordination with Connexus, where we presented an integrated showcase highlighting the best of our offering: Peruvian gastronomy, products, and spirits. This proposal was recognized with the “Best Small Booth” award, reflecting the impact and quality of Peru’s presence at this major international event.

Throughout the exhibition, we welcomed a high number of visitors interested in discovering Peru through its culture and flavors. Attendees had the opportunity to taste Gin 1535, Sinsonte, as well as Sapaq and Cuneo piscos, along with Peruvian wines from Cuneo Winery.

The response from both the public and industry professionals was highly positive, emphasizing the quality, versatility, and value proposition of the products presented—particularly highlighting the aromatic profile and character of Gin 1535.

At Lima Distillery Company, we reaffirm our commitment to continuing to position Peru as a leading reference in the global premium spirits industry.

QUINA – VALENCIA, ESPAÑA

A tasting in Valencia that unexpectedly shifted the focus of the night.

On April 12 at Quina, a group originally gathered for a pisco tasting was introduced to a special gin presentation led by Robert. The gin quickly captured everyone’s attention with its flavor, character, and personality, becoming the highlight of the evening.

The positive response was immediate, with guests asking for more after the tasting. More than a simple sampling, the experience showed how a well-executed presentation can turn a product into the true protagonist of the night.

MUNICH, GERMANY

A Munich bar takeover on March 16 became an unforgettable night centered around gin and moonshine.

What began as a one-night takeover quickly turned into a full experience, with guests drawn to the bar by the energy, atmosphere, and curiosity surrounding the drinks. The response was immediate: surprise, excitement, and a genuine connection with the products.

More than just a tasting, the night showed how gin and moonshine could create a memorable experience—one that guests returned to, shared, and remembered long after the evening ended.

ROCOTO – BERLIN, GERMANY

On March 14, Rocoto Bar in Berlin hosted a takeover that became more than just a tasting.

What started with curiosity quickly turned into genuine interest as guests connected with the gin and the experience surrounding it. The product matched the energy of the bar, the crowd, and the rhythm of the night.

The impact continued beyond the event: the gin is now part of Rocoto Bar and its Latin food market. What began as a one-night takeover became a lasting presence.

PAJATÉN – BREMEN, GERMANY

On March 12 at Pajatén in Bremen, the tasting experience took a more intimate approach by bringing the bar directly to the guests.

Led by Luis, the venue’s owner, a mobile bar cart allowed cocktails to be prepared tableside, creating a closer and more immersive interaction. The concept quickly connected with the audience, generating curiosity and strong engagement throughout the night.

What began as a one-time activation became a permanent presence, with the product now part of Pajatén’s regular offering.

SASIKAYA – PASSAU, GERMANY

At Sasikaya in Passau, the experience became more than a bar takeover—it was a cultural exchange.

With Anthony Marinese, Master Distiller of Lima Distillery Company, present, guests had the chance to discover not only the gin and moonshine, but also the story, process, and intention behind each spirit.

Through signature cocktails, Latin rhythms, and direct interaction with the audience, the night created a strong connection between Peru, the products, and the people. More than an event, it was an experience that left a lasting impression.
