Our values

For us, pesto is more than just a recipe: it’s family, memory, and respect for the land that raised us.

Every jar tells the story of Nonna Fiore, of her slow and precise gestures, of the aromas that filled the kitchen and brought everyone together around the same table.

We believe in genuine raw ingredients, seasonality, and artisanal craftsmanship.

Each ingredient is carefully selected, working with local producers who share our standards of quality and sustainability. We respect natural rhythms because true flavor can only be born from simple and honest gestures.

Every package carries our story: family, territory, and a passion for good food made the right way. For us, it’s not just pesto. It’s a daily commitment to bring authenticity, balance, and well-being to the table.

Genuine raw ingredients

Genovese DOP Basil

The heart of our pesto is Genovese DOP basil, grown in the sun-kissed lands of Liguria. This basil, recognized for its intense aroma and delicate flavor, results from careful cultivation in an ideal microclimate.
Its glossy green leaves are the first sign of the quality that distinguishes our pesto.

Extra virgin olive oil from taggiasca olives

We add high-quality extra virgin olive oil from Taggiasca olives, which lends a fruity note and a velvety consistency to the pesto.
The evo oil is essential for binding the ingredients together, creating a perfect balance of flavors.

24-month-aged Parmigiano Reggiano

No pesto is complete without 24-month-aged Parmigiano Reggiano, whose robust and aromatic flavor enriches our recipe.
Each shard of cheese adds depth and complexity, making the pesto even more irresistible.

Fiore Sardo Pecorino

For an extra touch, we use Fiore Sardo pecorino, a cheese with aromatic and savory notes that pair beautifully with the other ingredients.
Its presence adds another dimension, enhancing the character of the pesto.

Vessalico garlic

Another distinctive ingredient is Vessalico garlic, known for its sweet and delicate flavor.
This garlic, grown in the Riazzone valley, adds an unmistakable aroma without being overpowering, allowing the other flavors to shine.

Pine nuts

Finally, pine nuts, a prized and sought-after ingredient, bring a crunch and a slight sweetness.
Their presence is essential for achieving the right consistency, making the pesto creamy and enveloping.
