Did You Know?
Godello is a distinguished white grape variety native to northwestern Spain, particularly the region of Galicia.
Galicia is known for their orujo, a pomace brandy made from distilled grape skins in copper pot stills. It is often called aguardiente (firewater).
Orujo is usually clear in color, but can also take on an amber hue if aged in barrel. Orujo is also often infused with herbs, fruit, coffee, or cream.
