distillation renders a fine and elegant spirit specially
matured in American and French oak casks of ex-
bourbon, sherry, cognac, and wine. The Piltriqutrón
hill valley´s microclimate ensures a long and smooth
maturation giving a Patagonian singularity to this
whisky.
The single malt La Alazana Patatonian whisky is
produced in different types bottled in classic clear
glass bottles and nicely presented in boxes (Figures
4 and 5).
The miniatures are only made for the Jauja ice
cream house headquartered at El Bolsón (Río
Negro province). It also has branches in different
Patagonian tourist centers, mainly Esquel and
Bariloche cities. They come in a nice
presentation box containing two miniature
bottles, plus several chocolate bonbons, another
outstanding regional product (Figure 6). As depicted
in figure 7, having two labels located in the front and
the back, two miniatures varieties are known up to
now. They are bottled in different square clear glass
bottles and topped with aluminum caps. A general
view and close up of the labels, the figure 8 depicts
the oldest known piece. It belongs to the Juan
Barragán collection who acquired in 2017 on behalf
of the Whisky Club from Buenos Aires city. It
contains 30 ml, and the label is simply designed; on
a black background only it shows the trademark, the
content, and the webpage address. Like the
borders, they are written with a white tone.
