DISTILLERIA BOTTEGA<br />
SPIRITS<br />
THE VENETO, ITALY<br />
Distilleria Bottega was set up in 1977 by Aldo Bottega, a master distiller with over 30<br />
years of experience. The distillery began modestly, operating in the local grappa market. In<br />
1983, with the death of its founder, son Sandro took on the management of the company<br />
with the assistance of siblings Barbara and Stefano. In a few years, Distilleria Bottega left<br />
its anonymity, thanks to an innovative distillation system that makes grappa mellower and<br />
more delicate. In 1987, the Alexander brand joined Bottega; this new brand is intended for<br />
those consumers who have developed a much more educated and refined palate.<br />
All Alexander Grappa has its origin from very fresh and vinous marcs that are distilled in<br />
copper stills following the steam distillation in order to guarantee the highest quality. The<br />
Venetian blown glass bottles, designed by Sandro Bottega, are the ideal container to view<br />
the clarity and transparency of the Alexander Grappa. They were also the object of a<br />
prestigious international exhibition called “Art in Grappa”.<br />
