Review and Tasting
Sampled on 07/01/2020
Appearance:
Clear golden amber.
Aroma:
Subtle and complex rather than pungent. Cigar leaf, chicory smoke and butterscotch with faint linseed oil. More reminiscent of a whisk(e)y than a grappa.
Taste:
The complex, almost meaty smokiness is well-integrated and well-balanced rather than overpowering and bitter. Indeed, this grappa is faintly sweet. Light cinnamon and black pepper spice.
Aftertaste:
Long lingering toasty oak and subtle smokiness and gentle spice.
Overall:
With is subtle meaty smoky flavours, this elegant and complex grappa – with its flavours of cigar leaf, chicory smoke and butterscotch – is whisky-like.
