Developed and introduced in 1987 under the creative direction of dynamic entrepreneur Sandro Bottega, the Alexander Grappa range are produced by Distilleria Bottega, located in the heart of northern Italy's scenic Veneto region, birthplace of grappa. Double-distilled in copper steam alembic stills, Alexander Grappas are highly refined, aromatic, smooth and naturally moderate in alcohol. Alexander Grappas are packaged in sensational hand-blown bottles designed by Sandro Bottega and crafted by skilled master glass blowers at the Bottega family's own glassmaking facility, in the tradition of the art form developed in Venice in the 1400s.
