ITALIAN APERITIVO
Being together is an art that, like any other, comes from a desire and a need: to share the things that bring us joy. And in Italy, the aperitivo is often a real masterpiece. If the table is your canvas, then the flavors and colors you choose are your brushstrokes—and nothing is left to chance. That’s why we imagined a Mediterranean-inspired creation that pairs the sweetness of Tuscan prosciutto with the fragrant crunch of our Rosemary crackers, the genuine variety of our Mediterranean antipasto with the smooth complexity of Extra virgin olive oil. The bold flavor of Tuscan salami meets the creamy tenderness of Pecorino cheese, with its unmistakable fresh-milk aroma. The vibrant red of sun-dried tomatoes and the bright green of Nocellara olives will shine like little bursts of light on your creation.
You don’t need to wait for a special occasion—this aperitivo will turn even the dullest day into something extraordinary, like a sunbeam streaming through an open window overlooking the sea.

PASTA ALL'AMATRICIANA
Hard to believe, but when tomatoes first arrived in Europe in the 16th century, they weren’t seen as food at all—they were just used as decoration.
Luckily, they eventually found their way into the kitchen. Otherwise, Pasta alla Gricia would have never become the legendary Amatriciana. And we wouldn’t be able to share our own version with you—one that honors tradition while adding a modern twist: Penne with wheat germ.
