Marolo Milla Liqueur Grappa and Camomile

Tasting Notes

Digestif, anyone? Or, rather, that should be digestivo, as the Italians would have it. This intriguingly chartreuse-green liqueur is made by infusing grappa - specifically distilled from Piedmontese nebbiolo grape pomace - with chamomile blossoms. There's considerable sweetness here, too, but the balance is spot-on. Think of peach-apricot syrup mixed with chamomile tea and punched up with the heady spice and bite of 35-per-cent alcohol.
