“The truffle. A diamond dirty with soil”.
The truffle, King of the Woods, dominates the finest kitchens in the world,
and is a symbol of poetry for the most refined palates.
Legend has it that it was created by a lightning bolt thrown by Jupiter, famous for his skills as a lover
(not for nothing, truffles are considered one of the most aphrodisiac foods).
The ancient Greeks had therefore grasped the essence of this extraordinary product,
which derives from the union of the 4 elements: water, earth, air, and fire.

Uncontaminated Molise
Uncontaminated Molise
Molise, a territory that has long kept its treasure hidden,
has finally shown the world its most precious diamond.
The Molise area is characterized by a geographical and climatic situation
that creates a favorable environment for agro-forestry development.
Industries in this area are almost non-existent
and the territory has not undergone traumatic interventions by man.
These two factors, along with the favorable orographic and climatic aspects,
have made and continue to make the area more suitable for the proliferation of high-quality truffles.
