History,
Begun in 2010, PUNI is Italy’s first and only whisky producer. Hailing from South Tyrol, a province in the northeast of the country, the distillery takes its name from the nearby Puni River. An ideal location for whisky production, the “Highlands of Italy” have a long tradition of growing grain, with rye the dominant variety due to the area’s dry climate and low precipitation. PUNI uses this locally grown rye in its triple-grain mash bill along with malted barley and wheat, contributing a distinct flavor that speaks to PUNI’s vibrant location.
Distilled from a combination of barley, wheat, and rye (all malted), aged for two years in ex-bourbon barrels and an additional two years in Pedro Ximenez sherry butts,
Tasting Notes: the nose on the PUNI SOLE radiates bright citrus and warm vanilla while the palate is layered with soft oak and wild honey. It’s a pleasing Highland-style malt, albeit from the Italian Highlands rather than the Scottish! Non-chill filtered with no added coloring. 46% ABV
