This specialGrappa Riservaalready matured for a long period (over 2 years) in oak wood was subsequently aged for over 24 months in barrels purchased in the United States (Tennessee) and already used previously to elevate the “Tennessee Whiskey” of one of the most prestigious distilleries.

The particular period in Tennessee Whiskey barrels was tested by us in an innovative way on Grappa and with exceptional results from a qualitative point of view.

The intense aroma, with notes of malt and the refined, complex flavor with a persistent aftertaste, are very reminiscent of that of the Tennessee Whiskey already contained in these barrels.
