Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
This grappa shows a deep amber yellow color, limpid and crystalline. The
nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas of cinchona, chocolate,
dried fig and honey, with almost imperceptible alcohol pungency. In the
mouth has intense flavors, with perceptible alcohol pungency that tends to
dissolve rapidly, good correspondence to the nose, pleasing bitter hint and
roundness. The finish is persistent with flavors of cinchona. This grappa
is distilled with a discontinuous bainmarie alembic still. Produced with
the infusion of cinchona calisaya for some months. |
