So it tastes like cheap gin?
Why not just get a good brandy?
When in doubt, distill and distill again.
My first introduction to Grappa was in a trattoria in Sienna.
Waitress came up after dinner and said “We have something we’d like you to try, on the house. Just don’t do shots, it’s dangerous.”
Thanks for posting. A couple of years ago I was staying with some Italian friends who brought me to Bassano del Grappa and the Grappa museum. Fun place with exhibits that dispense a mist of various flavors of Grappa
put it in my strong morning coffee when I visited mom’s hometown jeselo lido. good that way.
Ha! Malört! You will regret it!

It was only $14 a bottle when I purchased it. I had a total of 2 drinks. I was visiting someone in Wisconsin at the time. I set the bottle down and forgot to pick it up again. If some Freeper in Wisconsin finds it you’re welcome to it!
It’s seductive. Drink the first one but the second one is better.
It’s a quickly acquired taste.
Wow Nick! This site even has an article on “Spirits To Use For Not-Gross #SpiritCooking”

Sorry Nick, Grappa taste like s***. I would much rather sip on any other German or Hungarian schnapps.
We were offered chestnut grappa in a restaurant in southern Tuscany this summer. It was fantastic. I only had one small glass but woke up in the middle the night not feeling right. Not sure if it was related or my intolerance to spirits or to the grappa.
