Thank you Science Channel for showing our distillery and how we make grappa! If you come to Italy, come visit us! Cheers and enjoy grappa responsibly!
Solid stuff you sell, cheers
Do you add water to the pumice? It looks dry going in. Does it use regular wine yeast?
@@felixarbable no, we do not add any water to the pomace! they are full of their own juice! :) you should come see our distillation process in real life! we would love to host you!
I would love to take you up on the offer! I’ve been planning on holiday in Italy and I now plan on visiting your area. I hope to see your distillery in October!
@@kaptainkaos1202 yesss! Please send us an e-mail to borgononino@nonino.it when you know when you will come!😊
A classic, after a big meal or during the worst of winter... a grappa warms your heart!
I remember as a child my father and his friends making their own grappa illegally with a lot of equipment I wondered what the hell was about. Now I am amazed they managed to do it with so little.
That's probably because they made their grappa not from leftovers of wine but from the whole brew without extracting wine, as even nowadays balkan people make their grape rakia instead of buying it in the supermarket even if they have to pay tax for it for volumes over some small limit set by law. Propperly made rakia tastes well even without aging in barrels and it is mostly consumed not aged.
I didn't even know Grappa existed until I watched this video.
Me neither! I was genuinely puzzled and now I'm fascinated!!
I second you
Same. I was even saying “wtf is that” as I read your comment
Same
lol same
"Traditionally an after dinner drink"
Me, an intellectual, sitting down for breakfast "technically it's after dinner" or maybe I'm just an alcoholic.
"Inter-Lectual" means "between beds".
Both

I really like it when all the parts of something are used, so the fact that not only does the grape juice get used, but the stems are used and the casings and seeds are also used is really nice!
Just fyi for anyone wanting to try grappa, it's a digestivo, meant to be drank after a big meal. Don't go burning a hole in your stomach!
Well that's a good heads up
Ooh, Nonino is the good stuff. Excellent choice!
Thank you for loving our Grappa!
I was a bartender for 10 + years and Grandppa is like gasoline. Super strong!
It’s about 41-50% after final distillation. I’m not sure how it’s any more intense than good vodka or whiskey.
@@illuddivinus3309 After a quick glance at my drinks cabinet that alcohol level is pretty standard for spirits in general.
@@ultrademigod for sure. I only drink mezcal at 50+
@@illuddivinus3309 Because the key here is the kind of alcohol that's inside the Grappa. Not all substances ferment in the same way, specially with so wildly different types of sugars turning into alcohols.
@@HotMudrs I was thinking on what becomes alcohol, not the alcohol itself.
Man, I love grappa. For anyone with stomach problems, I highly recommend it. The very best digestif available in my opinion. Absolutely sovereign for that heavy feeling in your stomach after a meal.
Grappa is for a long conversation after a big meal while your sitting in front of a fireplace. Serve it in a snifter and let your hand warm it. Sip it slowly and savor the raisins, cherries, prunes, and apricots in the nose. Let it sit on your tongue for a while and inhale before you swallow. It’s an amazing drink meant to be enjoyed sparingly.
For all the commenters going on about “bitter” “tastes like battery acid” or “gasoline”: this is not a tequila shot. This is not for your local frat party. It’s not for everyone, I’ve served it to many people and some like it and some hated it. It’s an acquired taste. I recommend not giving up on it after the first try. My wife shared your opinion and now she loves it, craves it even. It’s the second most popular drink in our cabinet after bourbon. But don’t try to shoot it or it’ll go down like everclear. This is for sitting, sipping and savoring, not dancing at the club.
Well said my friend. Greetings from Italy.
@@arnealessandrotaraldsen1388 Buongiorno, amico mio! Grazie!
Love your description! I'm not a big fan of Grappa but a great digestive that I like is Fernet Branca, great mix of herbs and different aromas. I had nearly a stomach ache after a big meal the other day but after sipping a Fernet it was all over. Do try it!
@@fb55255 I’ll keep an eye out for it, thanks!
@Bitterman yeah, thanks for that. I’ll enjoy my food based on balanced diet, and my occasional large banquet full of flavor finished perfectly with a cocktail or spirit. You can keep your advice.
This dude is like Pitt in Inglorious Bastards. "Bawnjerno, a river der chee"
😅😂😂
More like brad Pitt in snatch
"..as Italians say:Salut" 🤣🤣
Gorlaaaami....
Salute paisan!
And what is left over after making Grappa becomes Mad Dog 20/20…
Ha ha ha ha
This is what you toast with when you've discovered the Fifth Element.
Gets even better with that secret liquid that the priest has just added, trust me
boron has already been discovered
Was hoping someone thought of it
At first when he mentioned pumice, I thought he was referring to the rock that floats on water
it is spelled pomace
My first thought was Lava Hand soap.
Me too 😆
I thought he said hummus
Barrel aged Grappa is the best after a big meal.
Love that brand's name, "Grandpa's Chardonnay" 😃
We want "How's it made: How's it made videos"
"We made alcohol out of these grapes, now we've got a bunch of grape leftovers. Should we just use it as cattle feed?"
"Nah, let's see if it can be used to make a different alcohol."
My late father used to make his own but his favorite brew was distilled from Williams' bon chretien pears.
yeah, you really don't understand anything! it was about brandy from pomace ( the solid remains of grapes after the pressing for wine) , from the GRAPES . I was not about whatever brandy from whatever fruits.
@@MrQ454 He made it from pomace too which produces the true grappa. I watched and helped him do it many times since I was a kid, so I DO understand. What I meant is that the process is the same regardless of the fermented fruit being used.
@@chapiit08 yes is distillation but your ”pears Williams” are not related with that subject
@@MrQ454 Whatever, dude...
Please ignore MrQ454 because he had missed your point entirely. I am from Czech R., where people in the east prepare and have been distilling for centuries Slivovice (from plums traditionally), but we also prepare its variations from grapes, walnuts, hazelnuts, cherries, apricots, strawberries,.. My personal fav are from wild strawberries (extremely expensive) and from hazelnuts.
I thought the title said "how its made, GRANDPA"
...great grandpa pounded out great grandma really really hard. he worked her for an hour and left a wet mess inside of her. later, grandpa was made.
In Portugal we call it, Agua Ardente. We have really good and strong Grappa in Portugal.
My roommate went to Croatia for study abroad and he said grappa is super popular there. They even use a really strong version as a sort of medicine.
Well, a lot of distilled spirits go under the name akvavits/acquavite/eau de vie, all comings from the latin terms aqua vitae (water of life): this is because of the medical origins of these alcoholics: medics used these spirits to dilute medical herbs (creating bitters) or in case of heartstrokes, in order to repristinate blood circulation
Hi, grappa is present here, maybe more popular in some coastal areas, closer to Italy and Italian influence.
What your roommate probably encountered is a lot of homemade fruit brandy, Rakija, which is made from a huge assortment of sweet fruit (either grapes, pear, plums, or even honey, although it's not a fruit) and sometimes additionally aged together with carob, walnut, aromatic grasses, rowan, cherry, lemon etc.
@@vedran5582 Probably was more thinking Vinjak..
Grappa is common in Europe. I've never come across an Mediterranean-style restaurant who doesn't serve free Grappa (or many other digestifs) after a meal
This is a true sipping drink.
I tasted grappa for the first time on an aircraft from Italy back to South Africa in 1975. Whew, powerful stuff !
So grappa is the fancier Italian version of MadDog 2020
Nah, for that you've got to infuse it with froot loops and karo syrup
it is in fact a difference of civilization of almost half a millennium (only for Grappa)
Italian Everclear
@@dave623 yeah, the difference between a thousand years civilization and one from a couple of centuries ...
the last would drink even the spirit like a precious beverage, probably the prohibition also had some relevance on this
In Portugal we call it aguardente or bagaço. It's served as a digestive after a meal or after the coffee taken after a meal!
Added into my bucket list 💪😅
thank you for the video. i tried some grappa my friends father made, and i loved it. i would really like to make some
Quality grappa is amazing
After dinner drink, that I like. Thank you Italy.
What parts of Italy is Grappa made? And what a fascinating process, thank you for this post, Belismo... I've never tried this...? 👍👍👍🌵😎🇺🇸🇮🇹 👍👍👍Graci!!
In every part really, but it's more typical to the north.
I used to work in a restaurant owned by a Galician family, I can't stand Grappa just the smell of it makes me gag but I had to serve it constantly as it was the standard complimentary drink...
"As the Italians say.. salut." Said no Italian ever
Ahhhh Grappa😂🤣😂🤣 1989 Zurich (Christmas party) only time in my life where I alcohol poisoned 🤮 myself.
"You'll have to excuse us, we've been having grain with Grappa"
Grappa is a great!!! 💥😘💞
I'm hoping Grappa is the next thing. There are a lot these alcohols around the world that were just local unrefined stuff but once the producers know if you want the rest of the world to buy, you have to make it better. Mezcal and Tequila were like that. Now I like local Mezcal and Tequila but for most people it's too rough and tough so for those types, they need to distill it more. I love hot Grappa, not everybody does though.
it's very common in Europe. Especially Italian Restaurants of course
So its waste being turn into gold....
it still tastes like waste
After first stage fermentation........
NONINO one of the BEST !
Grappa is good stuff
In Serbia, from grapes and juice we make rakija ( lozovaca ).
From juice ( later wine ) we make vinjak.
From grape residue ( like they make grappa ) we make komovica.
Quality:
1. Vinjak
2. Lozovaca
3. Komovica
Stopped drinking and smoking years ago but I keep watching these liquor documentaries 😅
It used to be a poor man's drink now there are very nice aged variants. If you didn't like it, you likely drank a cheaper brand.
I like to ad grappa in my expresso coffee after dinner. I tried american grappa that was aged in left over bourban America barrels that was used to age bourban.
I can assure you Italians don’t say Salute, they say sa-lù-te
vero
OMG! I was laughing my ass off with that shit! Ja ja ja ja ja
Saloot. Haha!
Remove the "T" and that's how River Plate South Americans say it.
Bonjorno 🤌🤌🤌
I won't forgive myself for spitting all those skins and seeds into the garbage after eating my grapes. Think of all the grappa I could have made !
Never knew this existed till now. I want find some and try it
i had it once. its like fucking fire. bitter, astringent, spicy, smoky fire.
You drank the shot all at once, right?
The thing is that Grappa or Rakia, is a Balkan drink not Italian
@@albionhyskaj1320 rakia can be made with grapes, but grappa is only made with grapes, to my understanding, from your wording I assume your albanian, is that right?
It os very strong, but you can choose between many brands and styles to match your taste 😊
sounds like you drank some bad grappa
Had some grappa in Italy after dinner once, ‘try some of this’ my Italian friend said, I thought the lining of my throat was stripped away….Never again!!! 😖😫
I've never had a Grappa I liked. And I like lots of spirits!
Grappa? I hardly know ’er!
Love Grappa but good lord it knocks your head off
I spent the first half of this video trying to wrap my mind around the idea of making alcohol from hummus. 😂
I’ve been watching Science Channel for a while now! I love their content! As such, I made my own sci-fi/futurist channel!!
Can you make a "How they make babies?" for my son. Thanks
This is how you make babies. You drink grappa first and then get busy.
Sorry, you need to find that stuff for yourself then work it into a series of lessons. What depth of detail you want to go into is up to you. I suggest not using porn for this.
Myślałem że to GRAPPA ICE
Currently stationed here....... ...i
Love my grappa
This music is excellently groovy
Fun fact: The german word for "fries" or in UK "chips" is "pommes" and is pronounced exactly as "pomace", the stuff grappa is made from. So in germany order "pommes" and you get potato fries. You're welcome. (The complete order should be: "Eine grosse pommes und eine currywurst rot-weiss, bitte" - practice that for the next lesson... )
4:58 we say salute not salut 😀
Lived in Italy for 4 years, the video does not do the effect of Grappa Justice
Just out of curiosity, how so?
@@EddVCR It tastes like gasoline
@@sneakyflutes real grappa is so smooth
@@gabrieleantinori5461 Real grappa tastes like smooth gasoline. (Note: I love grappa.)
@@EddVCR Grappa is so, so smooth. It is very strong up front, which turns a lot of people off. But if you sip it, let it sit on your tongue and inhale, let the dark fruit flavors come out as you swallow. It’s gonna burn like any other brandy or cognac, but instead of nuttiness from them, or smokiness from a scotch, it’s more raisins, cherries, plums, etc. It’s absolutely my drink of choice after a big meal, wonderful for relieving that really full heavy feeling in your stomach.
This is what we in Serbia call Vinjak.
In croatian region of Herzegovina we also make this.
You can smell these distilleries 100 yards out
The bottles look like they could be filled a bit more... but a great video.
How It's Made: Grandpa
Admit it. You thought it said that too.
I first heard about Grappa while reading The Godfather novel..some 20 years back..!!
Grappa (Italiana or Greek) and Raki are really good warm with honey
Greek grappa?
@@67claudius yes. We have that too. We also call it "tsípouro". And if it doesn't have natural sweeteners we call it grappa. It's also common in Cyprus and the Balcans but with other names
@@nikosk.8216 Tsikoudia in Crete and in the balkans Rakija
@@nikosk.8216 tsipouro in my opinion is way better than ouzo but then again the Greeks do not export their best ouzo’s
I bought a bottle of grappa after discovering this video.
I gave away the bottle after trying it.
Watching this two glasses of grappa in on a lonely monday night
Now I want to try this grappa. Where's the best place to buy?
👍👍good
!'m an Italian and grappas kinda like bourbon for Americans in a way
Not big on hair nets there in Italy are they?
Huh. This is actually the same way you make rakija. Well, you can make rakija out of many different kinds of pumice but grape pumice is the most commonly used one.
it's pretty much the same stuff, yes. Squeezing grapes for the most alcohol possible really unite the europeans
Good job to that guy for getting first
100 proof is some pretty stout stuff for “after dinner”
Its for sipping on a cold day, while talking to a friend youve had for awhile
I’d like to know where to buy it. None of my local stores sell it.
No views, 12 likes. RUclips is drunk.
It's easy to get drunk with grappa 🤣
Inaccurate statistics from YT? No surprise.
Please share with me your comparisons of grappa to brandy?
I drink my grappa through a beer bong.
a form of recycling that is actually successful, profitable 👍👍
Grappa white lightning!!
“As the Italians say, ‘SaLUtE.’”
Nonino makes good quality grappa, no doubt. But I really would not call that "artisanal"
That's why Balkan Grappa is better, they use don't extract the sugar from the grape, and after pressed and fermented is distilled, which means no added sugar.
Your videos inspired me to make my own youtube channel 💓
You have a new subscriber, brother
Beautiful
I recommend trying Grappa with honey.
It is not called grappa with honey. That''s called "Rakia Medovača". Generally, the drink you people are reffering to is called rakia! Italians simply copied it and fools call it grappa.
@@zikzaki7253 get rekt scrub
@@zikzaki7253 In my country, we call it "Grappamiel"
In Himachal this is called kalga water.
4:01 this is clearly a filling machine
never drink grappa before ... and never heard its existence
When I drink grappa....I don’t take no crappa;)
Got a bottle of this and had to Google it
after dinner so what does grappa tastes like, is it sweet like a dessert?
@TraviTrail Also, if you go to South America, it's commonly mixed with honey and made into "Grappamiel"
I would say similar to cognac and brandy. Fruity, but not typically very sweet. Notes (as a whiskydrinker): mostly ethanolflavour, a bit of baking spice, tannins and fruits (typically raisins/currents/sultanas for me). Definately not as sweet as Rum.
The wood aged versions tend to be a bit sweeter (liquor picks up sugars/caramels from the wood), and oaked grappa has vanilla as you'd expect from oak.
Unless you're used to high ABV drinks, I'm not sure grappa would be the first choice. As the ethanol is definately the most dominant flavour, it's harder to taste anything else. If you're more acclimated to ethanol, the fruits and spices will show up.
Not trying to come across as a cork sniffer. More of a destilled drinks enthousiast, that likes to show people around.
@@lauriedepaurie thank you for your time and effort on explaining..very much appreciated :)
I wonder if humanity has already done all the ways you can make alcohol. Or did we miss one
Well the way is always the same. But what you can make it from is anything that contains sugar basically.
Seems like it's more of a steam extraction than a distillation.
Maybe it’s just because it may have been low quality grappa, but when I first tried it it burned everything in my mouth. So when they say “the flavor” of grappa, as in “they make sure the cork doesn’t affect the flavor”, it makes me laugh. Battery acid is the flavor lol.
Even the best tastes like ass. Iv had some of the best and I can tell you, it’s a harsh liquor with an ok buzz, it will cleanse the pallet though.
The higher the alcohol ,the lesser the taste.
I've been making grapa,rakia(from grapes) all my life-and it tastes way better than vodka,for example.
Another drink i've been making is palinca(usually made from plum,and other fruits)-this one is doubly distilled by nature,and the flavor is less,but alchohol is way up there to 70*degrees. Also,you can double distill grapa,also,but the taste will be lighter.
@@alakhazom Seems to depend n the region, in Zagorje rakija is made from distilled sour green "rakija plums" (they're not unripe, it's a different species from the sweet purple plums), but can be mixed and matched with other fruit, while the grappa is called 'tropica', named after the leftover skins, seeds, pulp and sometimes stalks (depending if you remove them during the wine making process) we call 'trop'. There's also 'lozovača' or 'loza' for short that is made by simply distilling wine (usually excess old wine to make room for fresh new wine)
Cheap grappa is basically watered down everclear.
Its like whiskey. Not all of them are created equal
Well, now i know what grappa is.
Before I clicked I asked myself what the crappa is Grappa lol
