Distillation and production
Distillation and production
Production method
Product sheets found for some labels indicate the use of discontinuous pot still distillation (batch still) and cold filtration practices; comprehensive details on production techniques are not documented in a single official online source.
Distillation
For some labels distillation in discontinuous pot stills (batch still) is declared; detailed production practices are not uniformly specified in the available sources.
Ageing
Some references are marketed as 'invecchiate' or 'vintage', so there is aging for certain labels; details (type and duration) are not specified in the sources found.
Producer history Villa Colonna
Available sources indicate that the original activity operated under the name Distillerie Sari (born as a local business in Gussago) and that, in recent years, the brand/legal name became Villa Colonna (citations point to the corporate/name change from around 2010). Historical documentation and company profiles link the original Distillerie Sari (active since the postwar period) to the current production marketed under the Villa Colonna name.
Production philosophy
