Riserva dell' Alchemista di Famiglia Grappa

These guys have been making Grappa since 1885 and that's what they do first and foremost. They use their decades old relationships to secure the best pulp and then age their spirit in oak barrels, which gives the golden tint to the coloring and adds a smoothness and a roundness that is unlike any Grappa I've ever had. Grappa is not by any stretch on my go to list for sipping spirits. But this makes a good case to be considered. — 6 years ago

6 P.M. Il Nostro Aperitvo

This sits squarely between Campari and Aperol in terms of sweetness and complexity. All natural (unlike the food color number 5 used for the mass produced drinks) it's certainly well made but I yearn for more bitterness. — 6 years ago

Liquore di Camomilla

Camomile is my favourite tea. Grappa is my favourite liqueur. Perfect fit. — 9 years ago

Extra Dry Vermouth di Torino

Nice Vermouth from one of the oldest Grappa producers in Piedmont. Grassy, waxy in style, it would make for an interesting addition to a martini instead of the ordinary. — 6 years ago

Label is appealing. Classic look.

Barolo Chinato Nebbiolo

Barolo Chinato Montanaro. Made from nebbiolo grapes, this wine is a strong aromatical type of sweet wine. The aroma is filled with orange,rhubarb,pepper. You feel a strong bitter taste on the palate. It pairs well with chocolate! — 9 years ago
