Bepi Tosolini Grappa Distillery Edition - Barrique Ex-Rum
Introduction
Bepi Tosolini Grappa Distillery Edition - Barrique Ex-Rum is an artisanal spirit from Italy, specifically produced in the northeastern region of Friuli Venezia Giulia. The distillery was founded in 1943 by Giuseppe 'Bepi' Tosolini, a visionary who transformed grappa from a rustic, rough spirit into a refined product for connoisseurs. Currently operational in Povoletto near Udine, the distillery remains a family owned enterprise led by the founder's grandchildren, Giuseppe, Bruno, and Lisa.
Spirit Description
This aged grappa is crafted from the fresh pomace of various noble Friulian grape varieties, distilled according to the 'Tosolini method' using traditional artisanal steam pot stills. The spirit is matured in American oak barriques that previously contained first quality Caribbean rum in the family's own cellars.
Colour: The spirit presents a soft amber hue accented by orange highlights.
Aroma: The bouquet is enveloping and soft, featuring fruity notes alongside sweet vanilla, honey, and candied fruit.
Palate: It offers a rich and velvety taste that plays with flavours of honey and vanilla, demonstrating a warmth imparted by the rum barrel seasoning.
Body: The distillate is characterized by a soft, smooth, and full bodied texture.
Finish: It concludes with a long and enveloping finish that reveals a rounded aftertaste of rum and sweet spice.
ABV: This expression is bottled at 40%.
Accolades
Bepi Tosolini is recognized as one of Italy's premier grappa distillers, having received the 'Alambicco d'Oro' award for excellence in grappa production. This specific Distillery Edition is a rare release, with a limited production of only 2,001 bottles globally. The distillery's innovative approach, including the founder's early adoption of artisanal steam stills, has established it as a benchmark for quality in the international spirits market.
Food Pairing
The sweet, warm, and spicy characteristics derived from the rum cask finish make this grappa an ideal postprandial selection.
Savoury: It can be enjoyed as a digestif following a meal, particularly when paired with high quality coffee.
Sweet: The notes of vanilla and honey complement rich desserts such as chocolate cake, tropical fruit tarts, or traditional Italian pastries.
Chocolate: Bittersweet or dark chocolate provides a sophisticated contrast to the spirit's velvety sweetness.
Serving: For an optimal sensory experience, it is recommended to serve this grappa at a temperature between 18°C and 20°C in a large balloon glass to allow the complex aromas to develop.
