While Italians have long been fascinated with Scotch whisky, they never really had any interest in producing their own whisky. That is, until Puni opened its doors in midst of the Italian Alps in 2012. Interestingly, Puni’s whisky is made not just from malted barley, but also from malted rye and malted wheat. Puni Nova was matured for three years in ex-bourbon barrels from the United Stated followed by a very short finish in European white oak barrels. A pure Italian single malt!
