Would you like to get to know the Bronte Pistachio DOP up close?
You are in the right place!
Discover the details of our experience.
The Pistachio di Bronte DOP is perhaps one of the most famous and appreciated Sicilian products in the world.
Precisely for this reason we have created a tour that allows you to get to know him better by personally going to a company that makes it. You will thus be able to appreciate its incredible taste and discover the great work behind the production and processing of the 'Green Gold of Etna'.
The experience can begin starting from Taormina, Catania or neighboring towns, with possible pick-up of the guest directly at the hôtel.
From the meeting point, we will reach a company that owns a 16-hectare pistachio grove. Here we will meet the owner, who will tell us the story of his old farmhouse, once a small monastery.
A short walk on the lava flows of Etna will allow us to closely observe the Pistachio di Bronte DOP trees. We will thus discover the secrets of cultivation and the tiring work of harvesting, which allow us to obtain a high quality product.
We will then return to the old farmhouse where we will be offered a tasting of the Bronte pistachio, followed by lunch or dinner.
The menu will consist of
- tasting of natural Bronte Pistachio
- bruschetta with salted Bronte pistachio pesto and Nebrodi black pig mortadella
- bruschetta with salted Bronte Pistachio pesto, dried tomato and stracciatella
- pasta with Bronte Pistachio pesto and bacon
- Sicilian brioche with sweet Bronte Pistachio cream
- Bronte pistachio ice cream.
The menu may undergo small variations, always maintaining the high quality of the raw materials.
The experience lasts approximately 3 hours, excluding transport times.
