Herbalis

The history of the Poli distilleries began in 1898 in an inn in Schiavon in the Province of Vicenza by GioBatta, great-grandfather of the current owners, who with his still pulled by a cart distilled the grape marc collected on the farms of the Venetian foothills, the cradle of 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 still, we moved on to various expansions of well-sized plants by grandfather Giovanni, up to the last one installed by Jacopo Poli in 1983 which has 12 copper boilers heated by flowing steam, according to an artisanal and discontinuous method, ideal for processing red grape marc. If we add to this the projects developed with the Istituto Agrario San Michele all'Adige and the University of Trento in 2003 to produce an innovative bain-marie still operating under vacuum, we have a measure of the bond and value that this family has created in the area, nurturing and developing ancient traditions up to today.

The production of Herbalis, from the Poli distilleries, is an artisanal process that requires great skill and attention to detail. The herbs and spices used are carefully selected and infused in brandy aged for at least three years. This long maceration process allows the aromas to be completely extracted and harmoniously integrated with the alcoholic base. Subsequently, the mixture is subjected to a delicate distillation, which allows a pure and crystalline distillate to be obtained. The infusion is made with over fifteen medicinal botanicals, including artichoke leaves, sage, rosemary, oregano, orange and lemon peel, Roman wormwood flowers, coriander fruits and fennel. Its aromatic complexity, elegance and versatility make it a one-of-a-kind product, capable of satisfying even the most demanding palates.

The aroma of Herbalis is characterized by a complexity and richness of nuances that make it unmistakable. The nose perceives intense herbaceous and aromatic notes, dominated by sage, rosemary and oregano, which intertwine with citrus hints of orange and lemon peel. To these are added delicate floral and spicy notes, which give the product an extraordinary depth and olfactory persistence. On the palate, Herbalis reveals itself as a unique, balanced and enveloping sensory experience. The attack is fresh and citrusy, with a pleasant bitter sensation that develops gradually, leaving room for sweeter and spicier notes. The persistence is long and pleasant, with an aftertaste that recalls aromatic herbs and citrus fruits. Herbalis is a versatile distillate, perfect to be enjoyed neat, on the rocks or paired with desserts. It also lends itself to the preparation of sophisticated cocktails, thanks to its aromatic complexity and its balanced alcohol content.
