VULCANICA in an authentic Sicilian artisanal vodka, distilled from ancient grains grown on the slopes of Mount Etna.

HOW IT STARTED

From Sicily with Love

Caltanissetta is a city very conveniently located
in the middle of nowhere: the inland of Sicily.
Poor, with a harsh climate and a very
conservative mindset.

Giovanni Ruvolo, the mayor, once said:

“Our farmers are so traditionalist that they have
never managed to grow the modern high-yield grain
varietals that everybody else favors. Ironically, this
disadvantage has now transformed into a
competitive advantage”.

This intriguing statement led us to investigate the
story behind it.

An unexpected Vodka with a smooth taste. Perfect pure with ice and mixed with Sicilian fruits, herbs and aromas. It spreads warm emotions and emphasizes all the five senses, elevating its organoleptic properties. The use of Vulcanica is mixology awakens the senses and sharpens them, stimulating vitality and cheerfulness.

Every batch of vulcanica vodk is hand-crafted for the optimum expression of the Sicilian countryside. our distillation process is methodical, capturing only the purest aromas and flavors of the island’s traditional grains. The light filtration process in meant to retain all of the nuanced flavors of the ancient grains growing around the volcano Etna.

Our Mission

To become the most appreciated Italian Vodka in the world, leveraging the Sicilian traditions and values: beauty, nature, art, wellness, joy of life.

ANCIENT GRAINS OF SICILY

The heart of our vodka comes from a unique blend of high-protein, low-gluten, savory Sicilian grains that have been a part of the daily diet on the island for millennia.

OUR DISTILLATION PROCESS

Our grains are steeped, fermented, and distilled in small batches in a copper column to produce a soft and creamy, sophisticated spirit that reflects the true essence of Sicily.

PURE SICILIAN WATER

We source only the purest Sicilian waters for the dilution process.

CLEARLY UNCLEAR

Vulcanica is not a tasteless transparent alcohol. Vulcanica is clearly unclear and brimming with Sicilian charm. Our light filtration process helps retain all of the nuanced flavors of the ancient grains growing around the volcano Etna.

DILUTION AND FILTRATION
The pure spirit is diluted with demineralized and filtered water to aarrive at the final strength of 40% ABV. The vodka is then lightly filtered to retain the essential oils found in Sicily's ancient grains
FERMENTATION
Only fresh spring wate from a 200 meter-deep well is used for the mash. The yeast we use for fermentation is "Saccharomyces cerevisiae". The resulting wash has an alcoholic strength of 7% ABV.
DOUBLE DISTILLATION
The first distillation takes place in a small column still. The low wine is then distilled for a second time in a pot still. The pure spirit has a strength of 96% ABV.
RAW MATERIALS
Vulcanica is obtained solely from a blend of ancient grain varieties grown in Eastern and Central Sicily. The most used varieties are Tummilia and Russello. We source our grains directly from local farmers, who are members of "Simenza", the association dedicated to the promotion of anient Sicilian grains.
