From Tuscany to the United States: Tradition and Innovation Without Borders.
Our dream is to bring Tuscany to your table, sharing the authenticity of its finest delicacies. Some dreams come true like magic, while others require ingenuity and careful planning. Import restrictions limit the arrival of certain cured meats from Italy to the United States, but we knew we could find a solution without ever compromising the quality of our products.
Our Prosciutto Toscano DOP will be imported directly from Italy. As for Finocchiona, Guanciale, and Salame Toscano, we’ve partnered with skilled Tuscan artisans who now live and work in the United States. Using premium Italian ingredients and pork raised in the USA, our local production ensures you can enjoy the true flavors of Tuscany.
By overcoming import limitations, we preserve the authenticity, expertise, and excellence that define our salumi. Whether it’s a DOP Prosciutto directly imported from Italy or a salume crafted with the same dedication here in the United States, our vision remains unchanged and follows us wherever we go: to share the very best of our land and our heritage, honoring tradition while embracing innovation.
Our journey into flavor has many starting points but only one destination: you.
Pasta is the heart of every laid table, just as wheat germ is the heart of the grain: a precious ingredient, rich in vitamins and protein, which unfortunately is often lost during the refining processes of industrial pasta factories.
The pasta we have selected for you is handcrafted and enriched with wheat germ, which gives it an unmistakable flavor. Genuine and fragrant, it tells a story of tradition, of families gathered around the mill ready for grinding, wrapped in the atmosphere of the Tuscan countryside.
Made from the finest durum wheat semolina, sourced from Tuscan and Italian grains milled in the province of Florence, our pasta is crafted using bronze-die extrusion. This technique gives the pasta a rough texture, allowing it to perfectly absorb your favorite sauces. Every bite becomes an explosion of flavor.
The combination of tradition, passion, patience, and the best technologies gives rise to this pasta which is so delicious that it can be enjoyed even with just a drizzle of olive oil. Pappardelle, pici, tagliatelle, spaghetti, penne, egg pasta … many shapes and ideas to choose from to invent the menu of an unforgettable day, just like the memory of time spent at the table with the people we love.
As red as fire, as red as the heart. Red is the colour of passion, and for those who love cooking, it’s the colour of homemade tomato sauce. When time is tight, life gets hectic, or you’re far away from home and menus are written in an unknown language, that’s when you crave for the simplest, yummiest, and most indispensable of condiments. The world has no language barriers when on the table there’s a plate of pasta with tomato sauce, a pizza, or ketchup, or French fries to dip into ketchup. Ask any Italian, and they’ll have at least one special memory accompanied by the sweet smell of red tomato passata.
We make our sauces and passata using ripe tomatoes picked from the best plants in mid-August. Tomatoes are hand-picked one by one and processed locally, adding only a few 100% natural ingredients to deliver that same authentic smell.
My mamma simply cannot set the table without finding a spot for the bottle of olive oil. She tried many different kinds over the years before she found the perfect one. Grandmother used to tell us to mix a few drops of olive oil with honey if we had a sore throat. We could safely say that our entire lives and our memories are drizzled with olive oil, the very same olive oil that is in the majority of our favourite dishes. It could take hours to list all of its properties. Olive oil prevents and cures. Just a few of its characteristics include protection for the stomach and the intestines as well as the nervous system. It can prevent heart attacks, and it is an elixir for your skin and hair. This Mediterranean diet staple has historically been used by many cultures as more than just an ingredient. For Catholics, olive oil is a symbol of peace, the ancient Romans used it as a bargaining chip, and for athletes competing at the Parthenon it was a prize that was just as valuable as gold. Epic poems and philosophers' writings talk about olive oil. Homer calls it "liquid gold". Over the centuries, olive oil has become an essential element in our culture and on our table.
Where nature is abundant, its fruits are precious and unique. In the hills of Maremma, the olive trees are centuries old, the climate is mild, and thermal waters flow like a lifeblood beneath the ground. Here, artificial flavors, preservatives, or colorings aren't needed: the earth and the sky, the sun and the winds, provide everything we need.
Olives in oil and in brine, tasty Mediterranean antipasto with capers and dried tomatoes, and timeless classics like ribollita and pappa al pomodoro... our pantry is as rich as Tuscan flavors and as genuine as its cuisine. The choice to harvest and carry out all production stages sustainably is a way to thank and respect the ecosystem and to preserve a landscape admired and often dreamed of by people around the world.
We have carefully selected for you a variety of delights in jars, ready to enjoy or simply to warm up, offering a delicious meal (even when time is short) or turning your table into a feast of flavors.
Peppers, eggplants, onions, and again: cauliflower, fennel, celery, leek, carrots, tomato, pumpkin, zucchini… sometimes we think of vegetables “only” as a source of vitamins, minerals and substances that contribute to our well-being. However, forgetting their taste and great versatility would be a real sin. Well then, if a sin must be committed, let it be a sin of gluttony: our selection of soups, sauces and vegetables in oil will conquer even the most refined palates and turn your pantry into a vegetable garden ready to give its fruits in every season, 365 days a year.
Some people love to end their meal with something sweet. Others like to enjoy a spoonful of their favourite dessert in the evening, on the sofa, while watching a film or TV series. Some treat themselves to a few nibbles while curled up with a book. Others still take a minute to relax on their balcony in summer with their favourite biscuits, or eagerly await Christmas time when they can enjoy a slice of panettone. Small, light-hearted temptations: our selection will treat you to a moment of sweet, carefree indulgence any time you want.
