Description

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.

Zu Plun - Rhum Dolomites Fine Hold - Rhum - Distillates from The Dolomites - High Quality - Liqueurs and Spirits

Very dry rum manufactured without added sugar and aged in oak barrels who had been previously used for Spanish Pedro Ximenez sherry wines.

The paradise distillate from the Caribbean in the Dolomites? Sure! This is thanks to the experimentation spirit of creative distillation masters at Plunhof, who have created something totally innovative for South Tyrol. The first rum distilled and bottled in Italy is something truly special. The molasses come from winding paths on the Sciliar: the thickened sugar cane juice is shipped in enormous containers from Central America firs to Hamburg and from there to Amsterdam – where the first small quantities are produced. The rum by Plunhof is hugely popular; this is due not only to its unusual place of origin, but rather most of all to its outstanding quality. This very dry spirit is produced without sugar addition and stored in oak barrels, which used to contain the Spanish sweet wine specialty Pedro Ximénez. Its numerous international awards confirm the competitiveness of this product – not just within a regional niche.

Significant is also the animal chosen for the label on this rum: it’s the widely-travelled hoopoe, with its spectacular feathering which makes it look almost like an exotic bird and whose journey is similar in length to that of the molasses…
This characteristic rum is produced without addition of sugar or aromas; it brings to the nose aromas of leather, tobacco, dried fruit and sultanas. Fine herb and mild palate.
