Today, Edoardo, the heir to the family tradition which has linked the Peloni name to grappa, marrying love for the profession and the study of experimentation, continues to produce excellent distilled grappas and liqueurs, as well as mixing them and ageing them to obtain refined and elegant products.
The Peloni Grappas prove the extraordinary goodness of the most famous Italian distillates, famous even beyond our borders and it should be noted that in the company research, technique and quality are a cult, for Edoardo's daily dedication in exalting the typical traditional origins of each distilled liqueur and grappa. The Company is technically in the avant-garde and is able to bottle its own production lines of both grappa and distilled liqueurs of various kinds.

Beautiful copper distillation boilers are featured in the production areas, where distillation takes place strictly using the discontinuous bain-marie method, in order to produce distillation which permits the checking of the production of small high quality quantities, from which the best aromas and scents are extracted.

The assortment includes: single-grape grappas from different sub-regions in Valtellina, liqueurs, grappa-based liqueurs and brandy distillates.

DISTILLATION

Distillation is a process which consists in separating the different parts of a liquid mixture. It is carried out by heating the liquid up to boiling point, in order that the more volatile elements evaporate, those with a lower boiling point can then be recuperated by condensation.

Distillation, for products containing alcohol, is a physical process of separation and concentration of the alcohol (ethanol) from the original raw material.

For distillation alembics are used; technically the term alembic refers only to the container used in the boiling of the liquids to be distilled; in the majority of cases, however, it refers to the whole apparatus, consisting of the fractionating column, the condenser and the container in which the distilled product is collected.

Distillation can be a continuous or discontinuous process. The first uses large production units while the second process takes place in smaller alembics.

The Peloni distillery uses a discontinuous distillation unit, made up of small copper boilers where the chosen raw material (marc, fruit, beer) is heated gently using the bain-marie method.

This distillation is also said fractional distillation in that it is carried out in different stages, where the fractions which are formed in the earlier phases of the process undergo further distillations in order to obtain a product of higher quality.
