The story
The original Moncalieri facility has production roots dating back to the early 20th century; in the 1960s it passed to Seagram and in June 1992 Carlo Vergnano purchased the plant, founding the current Torino Distillati. The company has remained family-run and over time has expanded its equipment and bottling lines, also acquiring a warehouse in Santena for the aging of eaux-de-vie and brandy. In 2018 the company changed from an S.r.l. to an S.p.A.
Production philosophy
Made in Italy quality, production flexibility and private label/contract cooperation services. The company aims for a balance between tradition and innovation, offering both own-brand productions and third-party processing with high sanitary and logistical standards.
Territory

Production method
Multifunctional production including percolation, distillation (including use of pot stills), stabilization by refrigeration and advanced bottling lines for various sizes and formats (including miniatures). It also offers private label and co-packing services.
