The art of distillation has been a Nonino Family privilege since 1897. Quality, innovation, research, professionalism and love for their work are their distinctive mark. Orazio Nonino, the founder of the family, is ultimately followed by Luigi, Antonio, Benito with Giannola, Cristina, Antonella and Elisabetta. Orazio Nonino establishes his own distillery in Ronchi di Pavia. Until this point it had been only a moveable still assembled on wheels.
