Vaca Mora Amaro Veneto

The history of the Poli distilleries began in 1898 in a tavern in Schiavon in the Province of Vicenza by GioBatta, the great grandfather of the current owners, who distilled the pomace harvested in the farms of the Veneto foothills with his cart-drawn still. grappa. Today the company is in its fourth generation and has evolved over the years by integrating care and respect for tradition with research and innovation that have brought the art of distillation to the present day. From the mobile alembic, we moved on to various expansions of well-sized grandfather Giovanni’s plants, until the last one installed by Jacopo Poli in 1983, which counts 12 copper boilers heated with flowing steam, according to a traditional and discontinuous method, ideal for the processing of red marcs. If we add to this the projects developed with the Agrario San Michele all’Adige Institute and the University of Trento in 2003 to produce an innovative vacuum bain-marie still, we have a measure of the bond and value that this family has created in the area, nurturing and developing ancient traditions to this day.

The history of the Amaro Vaca Mora is linked to the opening of the Osteria “Al Cappello” by GioBatta Poli in 1885 near the train station of Schiavon, which was one of the first villages that met to go to Vicenza from the plateau of Asiago, a section affected in those years by fervent industrial development. Shortly before the Osteria came the long-awaited “Vaca Mora” steam train, black cow in dialect, and while waiting for passengers and sometimes the driver, they sipped that bitter prepared by hand in the room infusing herbs, citrus peels and roots. A few drops later in 1898 in that Osteria the Poli Distilleries were born.
