Georgian Chacha leads the top ten of the best warming winter drinks around the world by the British edition Guardian. The article lists the variety of drinks, which, together with the traditional Christmas Glintwein, warms in the cold winter weather.

“Chacha is both the Georgian word for grape pomace and its distilled byproduct (pomace brandy), although it is used loosely to refer to any homemade spirit. Visit a Georgian village, where practically every family makes it, and you will be forced to down a glass or three. That’s how Georgians roll. It has long had a bad rep for being rough; however, we are witnessing a renaissance of smoother craft chachas and brandies, which are now served in Tbilisi’s finest restaurants. Chacha Time is the first and only bar in Tbilisi dedicated solely to chacha and fruit brandies. It’s in an old grocery shop in the up-and-coming Sololaki neighbourhood and offers a respectable selection of family-made and big-brand bottles. You’ll discover why Georgians love to drink this on cold winter nights” – the article published by Guardian reads.
