Grappa
2 weeks ago we visited to Bassano del Grappa, which is a beautiful city in northern Italy, where they make Grappa. It is a small town and they have a grappa museum. It was good to see, because I did not know how grappa is made. In earlier days it was the poor man's drink, because it is made from grape pomace, meaning the skins and seeds.
