grappa
Winery waste spirit
Grappa is an Italian brandy distilled from pomace—the grape skins, seeds, and stems left over from winemaking.
It's typically clear, high in alcohol, and ranges from harsh and fiery to smooth and refined depending on quality.
Traditionally served as a digestivo after meals: We finished dinner with a glass of grappa.
