TBWC PUNI 4YO 500mL

Bright, modern, and distinctly Italian, the PUNI 4 Year Old from That Boutique-y Whisky Company is a youthful yet confident expression from Italy’s first whisky distillery. Made using a mix of malted barley, wheat, and rye (depending on the release), PUNI’s spirit is known for its elegant grain-forward profile and continental flair — and this bottling captures that energy with clarity and finesse. On the nose, it opens with a bouquet of pear nectar, lemon zest, and fresh-cut herbs, lifted by hints of white pepper, sweet dough, and apple peel. There’s a soft grainy sweetness underneath, evoking semolina cake and light pastry cream. The palate is crisp, vibrant, and slightly waxy — showing notes of grapefruit, vanilla pod, and unripe banana, supported by a gentle warmth of ginger spice and light oak. Depending on batch, you may also find traces of wheat biscuit, marzipan, or floral honey, showcasing the distillery’s creative grain mash and fermentation techniques. The finish is fresh and clean, with lingering notes of white chocolate, grain husk, and a subtle mineral dryness. It’s a whisky that balances precision and personality — youthful, yet never immature.
