The story
The project was born from the experience of several US founders who moved to Puglia and decided to valorize the famous 'Pane di Altamura' by turning the local wheat into a range of spirits. The initiative is presented on the official website as a project originating in Puglia to celebrate the local tradition of Altamura wheat.
Production philosophy
The brand's approach is based on the concept of terroir: using exclusively wheat grown in the Altamura area and neighboring municipalities to transfer the territory's organoleptic characteristics to the vodka (cereal sweetness, umami and spicy notes).
Territory
Puglia region (Altamura area and neighboring municipalities of the Murgia). Registered office and commercial activities located in Ostuni (province of Brindisi), while part of the technical production is outsourced abroad.
