Winebow's founder collected grappa. Just like any other beverage category, quality ranges from lousy to ne plus ultra. This is better than average.

Back in the day, Leonardo (Winebow's founder) would say, "If you want to get ahead in this company, you must drink Tiefenbrunner's grappa!" Herbert Tiefenbrunner, in the Alto Adige. Wore lederhosen and spoke Italian with a German accent. All sorts of roots and herbs steeping in his grappa. That was rough stuff.
If you really want to hallucinate, I can get you some absinthe!
The Milanese folks had many different kinds grappa. It was quite an experience,
Their homemade limoncello was tastier, must’ve had some vitamins and provided entertainments.

The complicated history of Ole Miss' 'Hotty Toddy' cheer - The Oxford Eagle
“Are you ready?” It begins innocently enough, a simply phrased question that, given the right atmosphere, can raise the hair on your arms and stir something within your soul. Embedded into my memories are the raucous boom of ‘Hotty Toddy’ through Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on Oct. 4, 2014 after...

When I was there, ya couldn’t buy cold beer in the “City" of Oxford and the county (Lafayette) was a dry county.
But ya could float a boat on the hard stuff those folks consumed though.

Sometimes a trip to the liquor store to get Bacardi Silver for the missus gives you the opportunity to look over the whiskey/whisky section for something new, something that that catches the eye. Always having been a black cherry fan (soda, etc.) I was intrigued by the ‘finished with black cherry wood’. Got it home….and it’s quite good. Smooth, great flavor. Back of the bottle prattles on about advanced pressurization techniques and oxygenation. Brownski, anything to that? Prolly not.
If you see it it’s definite worth a try though.
Excited to see Belle opened. The snowmaking and new chair at WF is jazz-worthy. I did renew the Ikon Base for the season. Getting excited generally, while getting the whisky on tonight!
