Altamura Distilleries Vodka is distilled in small batches in Italy using acustom process designed to preserve the full character of the wheat.

Bottled at 43 percent ABV, it is a terroir-driven vodka for sipping neat, serving in signature cocktails, or poured from a martini trolley, as it is in the world’s best hotels. Available now for £32.50 on Master of Malt.

Clean, balanced, and quietly powerful, the Altamura Distilleries Martini has become a signature serve in leading hotel bars, chosen for its clarity, structure, and character. It rewards simplicity and precision.

Altamura Martini Recipe:

• 60ml Altamura Vodka
• 10ml dry vermouth (Altamura recommends Carpano Dry Vermouth)
• Garnish: Lemon twist or Castelvetrano olive

Stirred over ice until ice-cold, then strained into a frozen martini glass, this cocktail showcases the subtle umami depth of Altamura durum wheat.

Altamura Distilleries Vodka’s distinctive bottle is a reflection of the region it comes from. A lioness emblem, inspired by the steps of Altamura Cathedral, symbolises strength, independence, and pride.

The label’s three coloured stripes are drawn from the natural beauty of Puglia: yellow for the sun, blue-green for the sea, and red for the earth.
