This is a white grape brandy. Grappa is alchemy's daughter, as ancient as the process of distilling aromatice herbs, this activity was probably born in southern Asia and then traveled to Egypt and Greece until it was apprenticed by the Romans. Distillation spread and Grappa was born and largely appreciated in those Italian regions characterized by colder winters. Tradition speaks of a "hard liquor for strong, poor, earthbound people." The new wave of grappa, however, tends to be less aggressive, shows more fruit and is altogether more elegant on the palate. The grappas of Jacopo Poli embody this new found elegance. Poli may have, in fact, defined it.
