Poli Segretario di Stato is an Italian whisky masterpiece from the hands of grappa masters.
This whisky is made from malted barley distillate, the quality of which is based on the same strict principles that the Poli family applies to their grappa: distillation in small batches with copper stills, using only carefully selected raw materials. Matured in oak barrels, which give it a rich flavour and elegant texture.
A complex aroma dominated by notes of vanilla, honey, soft spices, dried fruits and light smoke. In the mouth it is balanced and smooth, with a lingering aftertaste of caramel, nuts and soft wood. Long, warm aftertaste.
"Segretario di Stato is a whisky for collectors, connoisseurs and those looking for something truly exceptional in a glass.
Poli Distillerie – A Legacy of Italian Grappa Passion Since 1898
It all began in 1898, when straw hat maker GioBatta Poli, driven by a passion for grappa, built a small still and began visiting local winemakers to distill the leftover grape pomace after winemaking. What started as a modest hobby soon became a family tradition, carried on by his sons and now passionately upheld by his grandson, Jacopo Poli – one of Italy’s most renowned modern grappa producers.
Craftsmanship and an Unwavering Commitment to Quality
At the Poli distillery, located in the Veneto region, five core principles guide every aspect of production:
Only fresh, healthy raw material is used – delivered daily in quantities that can be processed immediately.
The pomace is distilled without delay – never stored.
Distillation is performed using traditional copper stills and historical methods.
Every step is carried out with dedication and true craftsmanship.
Deep respect is shown to both the product and the consumer.
A Taste That Speaks for Itself
These principles enable the Poli family to produce grappas of remarkable quality – from soft and floral to more intense expressions rich in spice and fruit notes. Poli grappas and liqueurs are recognized and celebrated around the world, proudly featured on the menus of top-tier restaurants. They stand as a true symbol of Italian distilling artistry.
