Marolo

Marolo is a renowned grappa producer based in the heart of Piedmont, Italy, and is known for its artisanal approach to distilling grappa. Founded in 1977 by Paolo Marolo, the distillery has always focused on quality and refinement, with an emphasis on the unique characteristics of the grapes used. Marolo uses only fresh grape must (pomace) from famous wine varieties from the region, such as Nebbiolo, Moscato and Barbera, ensuring a unique expression in each grappa.

Marolo is distinguished by traditional distillation methods, using discontinuous distillation in small copper stills. This process helps preserve the complex aromas and flavours of the grape must. In addition, Marolo ages some of its grappas for years in small oak barrels, ensuring a rich and complex flavour.

Marolo's grappas are known for their elegance, soft texture and deep flavours. Whether a fresh, young grappa or a long-aged variety, Marolo offers a sophisticated drinking experience that is sure to appeal to spirits lovers.
