If you like extreme smoky whiskey, you’ll like Puni Alba. I purchased this whiskey 3 years ago through my daughter in the UK and because of Covid and other reasons I couldn’t get my hands on this bottle. Recently, with the restrictions lifted, I was able to travel to the UK. With much anticipation and excitement I was finally able to taste the first Italian whiskey made in the country of my forefathers. To my extreme disappointment, I couldn’t get past the cigar-ashtray taste that permeated my senses. I am a big fan of whiskey and bourbon but don’t like smoky to the point of overwhelming all of the other notes in the spirit. If I could give the whiskey 0 stars I would. Sorry to all the fans of smoky peaty spirits.
