Jacopo Poli Vaca Mora Amaro

Jacopo Poli is known for his grappa in Schiavon, Veneto – the Vaca Mora Amaro shows what happens when this distillation experience meets the world of herbal bitters. It's based on a maceration of over ten botanicals in grappa, including orange zest, hops, wormwood, and coriander.

Deep amber in the glass. Herbal and spicy on the nose with pronounced bitter orange; on the palate, a clear bitterness, supported by mild sweetness and a long, resinous-spicy finish. The grappa base gives this amaro a leaner structure than many southern Italian examples.

Neat at room temperature as a digestif, on ice with an orange slice, or as a spritz base with dry Prosecco. Pairs well with dark chocolate or strong blue cheese.
