OSTUNI BR, Italy, May 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Altamura Distilleries, a new company making spirits from the famous Altamura Wheat, was awarded a Silver Medal for its vodka at the SIP Awards, an annual spirits tasting competition based in the United States.

“Using the famous Altamura wheat, we wanted the vodka to have character from the wheat, so we distilled it just three times, rather than six or more times that drives any flavor out and has become common with many brands in recent years,” said Steven Acuña, Chief Operating Officer of Altamura Distilleries. “The result is a vodka with a hint of sweetness from the wheat and a bit of a juicy mouthfeel.”

“We are thrilled to have received this Silver Medal from the SIP Awards. While we are only selling the Vodka in Italy now, it’s good to know that consumers in the U.S. also enjoy a more expressive vodka flavor,” Mr. Acuña continued.”
