Villa de Varda Grappa Gran Riserva 12 Generazioni

Grappa/Marc — Italy

4.5 out of 5 stars

Fantastic marriage between high quality grapes and the brilliant finish of whiskey-oak barrel. An absolute must taste for grappa and whiskey lovers. 12 years makes the grappa rich and full-bodied, with the fat of the grape combining perfectly with the layered taste of a good Glenfarclas. Love it!

Eau-de-Vie made of raspberry. Nose is a well ripened raspberry, freshly picked. The taste is the soul of the raspberry, a perfect representative of this fruity berry. The alcohol is round and soft on the tong. It echoes a slight grapy tone.

Chairman's Reserve The Forgotten Casks Rum

Aged Rum — Saint Lucia

A strong buttery vanilla smell suggests a heavy sweet rum. The taste is soft, oaky and round. Not as sweet as the smell hints to, fortunately. It develops a rich palette of spices, juniper berry, cinnamon, caramel. The aging makes the story and definitely the rum.

Flows over the tongue like a sweet vanilla blanket. Behind the vanilla a slight spicy fruity taste. Subtle fade of coconut
