Zu Plun - Distillates from The Dolomites

“It is not necessary to be crazy to distill a great liquour, but it helps immensely”. A 14th-century document already mentioned the Plunhof at Siusi allo Sciliar (Seis am Schlern). In the past, the company was part of the land properties of the Hauenstein Castle and was therefore owned by no less than poet Oswald von Wolkenstein. Yet not even his vivid fantasy might have imagined that world-class and internationally famous fine spirits and fruit liquours would be born here, 1000 metres above sea level.

Today, Zu Plun is the distillery of the Dolomites that makes gins, rhums, liquours and grappas using mountain ingredients. The Dol Gin, made with Dolomitic plants, is certainly the one that best represents this area. There are many traces of this region in this liquour. The one that is probably most suited to the current trends is the Yellow Gin, in which the juniper aroma is enriched with the essence of lemons from the Garda region. The Grenoir is made with pomegranate, and finally the Salz Gin is enriched with salt and oysters.

Our Rhum

Rhum Zu Plun is a very dry rum, produced without added sugar and aged in oak barrels.

White rhum obtained of sugar cane juice from Central America and aged in ex sherry barrel.

White rum Rhum Dolomites quality. The great fame and numerous awards received by rum from the Zu Plun distillery encouraged the company experts to expand the range with another “”exotic”” specialty. White rum, like its darker brother, is distilled using molasses from Central America, which reach Europe across the ocean through the northern port cities of Amsterdam and Hamburg. It is stored, however, in barrels which have previously been used for dry white sherry. The sherry sediments in the barrels prevent the typical woody tones and their colourings, while the typical smoky aromas reach the distillate. The final palate pattern offers a fruity aroma almost reminiscent of mescal.
