"Grappling with grappa".
http://www.guardian.co.uk/weekend/st...798163,00.html
--> Grappa does, indeed, carry the odour of a heavy hangover, --> the sort that forces stinking, unprocessed alcohol out --> through your pores in an all-over body burp. Apparently, --> Italo Calvino thought it appropriate only for "defrocked --> priests, unemployed bookkeepers and husbands that have been --> cuckolded". Perhaps the kindest thing I've heard said about --> it - and this must be the extremeness of the alcohol level - --> is that it smells like skin-toner. I'm glad I read this *after* the trip to Italy. -- Vielen Dank |
