Based in Ostuni in the province of Brindisi, Altamura Distilleries was founded after three Americans decided to pursue a lifelong dream of moving to Italy. On their tours through the southern regions, they were inspired by the beaches, bread and quality of life in Puglia to put down roots.. It was there that a love of cooking and spirits merged into a cosmic feat that made it possible to transform a loaf of bread into an award-winning vodka. Since its inception in 2020, growing popularity and rave reviews have led Altamura Distilleries to ramp up vodka production and broaden product offerings, with a gin to be launched in 2023.
