BOTANICALS
GrapeHeart is made by 13 selected botanicals from the hills of Valpolicella, flavoured with the iconic Amarone wine.
Amarone della Valpolicella
Juniper
Angelica
Lavender
Hyssopus
Helichrysum
Sage
TECHNIQUE
To collect the hilly scent and incorporate the aromas of wine we let tiny droplets settle on the botanicals before infusing them in wheat alcohol. We employed an ultrasound sonicator to obtain a cold vaporization of wine.
RECIPES
GrapeHeart is the perfect paring to your favourite meal and, why not, one of the ingredients.
Grapeheart & Tonic
Take your first sip, rinse your mouth for a little while and enjoy the wave of sensations... We advocate first tasting Grapeheart neat. For a perfect G&T, use a neutral tonic water (like Fever Tree Indian, Fentimans Indian, Goldberg, Aqua Monaco, Thomas Henry). We really recommend to avoid pungent garnishes such as fresh lemon skin, rosemary or cucumber.

Bijou
While Martini e Manhattan got their way in the majority of drink lists, Bijou lost the appeal it had in the late XIX. That's a pity! In the original recipe from the Harry Johnson's Bartenders' Manual (1900) Gin, Chartreuse e Vermouth are mixed in equal parts. We simply prefer it with more Gin.
