Holiday in South Tyrol: Discover special and unusual shops

Away from the well-known shopping streets, many small shops with character await in South Tyrol. From handmade jewelry to regional delicacies and fine design – here you‘ll find authentic stores where passion, quality, and personality matter. Ideal for anyone seeking the genuine.

In the mood for a little shopping spree or a cozy breakfast in the garden? Below, we introduce you to some extraordinary shops and cafés that offer very special products for sale.

PUNI Whisky – Italy's only whisky distillery

In the idyllic town of Glurns, you can find Italy's only whisky distillery - “PUNI Whisky” - which was founded in 2010. Visitors have the opportunity to participate in guided tours of the distillery, which take place at fixed times weekly. In addition, whisky & chocolate tastings are also offered. Of course, it is worth stopping by the shop to purchase a PUNI whisky, made from the purest mountain spring water.

Naturally beautiful – Untereggerhof in Vals

At the Untereggerhof in Vals, delicious goat cheese and nourishing whey cosmetics are produced. The fresh milk from the noble goats is first refined in the cheese dairy, and then the whey that is produced during production is used as an ingredient for the care products. Goat cheese is lower in calories and easier to digest than cow's milk cheese, and the whey is used for moisturizing body lotion, mild hair shampoo, and nourishing facial cream. A visit to the Untereggerhof is worthwhile in every respect!
