Distillation and production

Distillation and production

Production method

Alexander grappas are produced by discontinuous distillation in copper stills, with multiple phases/temperatures to preserve aromas; some descriptions also report the use of vacuum distillation and bain-marie heating. Young grappas are generally rested in stainless-steel tanks before bottling; aged expressions undergo wood maturation depending on the specific reference.

Distillation

Discontinuous pot-still distillation (traditional copper still) with phases at different temperatures; some descriptions mention vacuum distillation and bain-marie heating to better protect aromas.

Ageing

Young grappas are usually rested in stainless steel (about 6 months for some references); aged grappas follow a variable period of wood ageing depending on the line.

Producer history Alexander

Alexander was created as a line/brand connected to Bottega SpA. The Bottega group, founded as a distillery in the 1970s, developed the Alexander collection and in 2011 opened the Alexander Blown Glass Factory where the artistic containers for the line are produced.

Production philosophy

A union of tradition and innovation: to offer soft, elegant grappas that preserve varietal characteristics while proposing artistic packaging (hand-blown bottles) conceived also as collectible objects.

Territory

Veneto (production site and Bottega group facilities, with the Alexander Blown Glass Factory located in the region).
