In the heart of Valle d’Aosta, Anna Maio unveils the unique flavors of La Valdôtaine’s distillery. A true connoisseur, she describes how the distillery’s liquors capture the essence of the Alpine region, thanks to its mineral-rich waters and rare mountain botanicals. “The craftspeople of the Alps select only the finest plant essences to create these spirits,” she explains. “But it’s the water that truly elevates them.” Behind La Valdôtaine lies a spring with a remarkable turquoise hue, rich in rare minerals that contribute to the unique character of the distillery’s creations.
Craftsmanship in Small Batches
La Valdôtaine produces only small batches of handcrafted spirits, each carefully distilled with an infusion of Alpine botanicals. The process is mesmerizing, with rare ingredients blended into Gin, Vermouth, Vodka, Grappa, Bitter, and Amaro spirits. Anna guided me through a tasting of each, and the lasting sensation of the Alpine herbs truly captures the spirit of the mountains.
