Grappa

Grappa or graspa is an alcoholic beverage of Italian origin. Traditionally, it is made from bagasse, a by-product of the winemaking process. This drink has existed since the Middle Ages.
It has between 37.5% and 60% alcohol by volume and is similar to the Spanish marc and the Portuguese bagasseira. The beverage is made by distillation of grape marc residues (mainly the husks, but also the stalks and seeds) and was originally designed to avoid waste, using leftovers at the end of the wine-growing season. Its taste, as well as that of wine, depends on the type and quality of the grape used, as well as the specificities of the distillation process.
Grappa has the particularity of being flavored by an herb called rue.
