Paolo Marolo began producing grappa in 1977, and his floral and fragrant infusion of camomile blossoms in Nebbiolo grappa is a crowd-pleasing signature style. Marolo suggests serving it chilled or frozen as an after-dinner digestif. TASTING NOTE: This liquor shows an intense straw yellow color and brilliant green nuances, limpid and crystalline. The nose reveals intense, clean and pleasing aromas of chamomile, pear, hazelnut, walnut and plum, with almost imperceptible alcohol pungency. In the mouth has intense flavors, a pleasing sweet attack and perceptible alcohol pungency which tends to dissolve rapidly, good smoothness, good correspondence to the nose. The finish is persistent with intense flavors of chamomile and a sweet hint. This liquor is produced with chamomile flowers infused for 11 months in grappa of Nebbiolo grape distilled in bainmarie discontinuous alembic still.
