Crysopea of Cleopatra

Cleopatra Oro is a line of Grappas obtained from very fresh marc, featuring a refinement and bouquet rarely found in a distillate.
A brief stay in oak barrels completes the structure.

Why Cleopatra?

Cleopatra, alchemist of the Ancient Egypt, created the first still aimed at distilling the most precious among metals, gold, and called it Crysopea (from Greek chrysos, gold and poirò, to make).

In the XXI century, after years of research at the Poli Distillery a new Crysopea was born again, the most innovative bain marie vacuum still in function nowadays through which the precious Poli Moscato ORO has been distilled and kept in this bottle.

The Poli Crysopea is an innovative bain-marie vacuum still equipped with a column without distillation plates.

Compared to other traditional bain-marie systems operating in Italy, the distillates obtained with Crysopea are significantly better due to:

1. - enhanced terpene floral note
2. - big reduction in head impurities
3. - considerable decrease in esters
4. - reduction in methyl alcohol.
