The Wall Street Guzzle

We knew, by now, that grappa had friends in high places but we never suspected quite how high. It now even features on the pages of the world-renowned Wall Street Journal.

A very good read, indeed. Particularly enjoyed the references to old-school grappa as a real man's drink and Hemingway's short story where our favourite beverage is involved. I must dig that one out.

Proof, if proof were needed, of the worldwide appeal which grappa now enjoys. And not before time...

It is good to see our American friends catching on. Maybe there's hope for them yet. :o)

I wouldn't hold my breath, but still, if it takes off in that market it could become a world leader. One day we might be supping a McGrappa!

Oh I bet that would be absolutely undrinkable.

I imagine it in a big red bottle with a golden "M" on the front. And probably made with a grape substitute.

I'm not loving it.
