	Grappa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Grappa is a grape-based spirit of between 40% and 60% alcohol by volume (80 to 120 proof), of Italian origin.
		Sometimes, usually in Italy, grappa is added to espresso and known as a "Caffè Corretto", which can also be made with other alcohols, such as sambuca.
		While these grappas are produced in quantity and exported, there are many thousands of smaller local and regional grappas, all with distinct character.

	Italian Grappa \| MacArthur Beverages
		Grappa is the legal Italian name given to the distilled spirits obtained through the distillation of the pomace of pressed grapes (skins, seeds, and a small quantity of pulp, must, and wine).
		The basic difference is that Grappa is obtained by distilling the pomace with boiling water and the extraction of alcohol present in it through a flow of hot steam.
		The grappa maker continuously corrects the trend of distillation by an ever-changing manual ability determined by the characteristic and type of pomace put in the boiler.

	Grappa
		Grappa was originally made in Bassano del Grappa, a town of around 40,000 residents in Italy's northern Veneto region.
		Grappa started as a by-product of the Italian winemaking trade, a rough drink made with what was available, potent enough to get the farmers through the cold winter months.
		Traditionally, Grappa is served chilled in small glasses and served after the meal, as the Italians believe that it aids digestion.
