OLIO EXTRAVERGINE DI OLIVA ML. 500 - SA CODE

Amenti Apicoltura’s Chestnut Honey is produced during the summer in the inland areas of Sardinia, in Tonara, at an altitude of about 1000 meters. Collected in the island’s forests, in cool and lush areas, this honey has a strong and decisive character and is highly appreciated for its robust, slightly bitter, and persistent flavor, ideal for those who enjoy intense, less sweet tastes. Chestnut honey ranges in color from light to deep golden, with amber tones. Its taste is intense and firm, less sweet than other honeys, with a slightly bitter aftertaste and woody, balsamic notes. The aroma is floral, with elegant aromatic and fruity hints. It pairs perfectly with cheeses such as Taleggio, Gorgonzola, and other blue cheeses, as well as main courses like game, roasts, braised dishes, beef or lamb fillets. It is also excellent with nuts, rustic cakes, structured red wines, and smooth spirits.

Amenti Apicoltura’s Strawberry Tree Honey is produced in Austis at an altitude of about 750-800 meters, where bees gather nectar from strawberry tree flowers, typical of the mountainous and forested areas of Sardinia. It is a rare and precious honey, known for its unique and distinctive character, highly valued also for its beneficial properties. In liquid form, the honey has a dark amber color, enriched with reddish or greenish reflections that darken over time. When crystallized, it takes on a light hazelnut tone with a compact, velvety texture. The taste is intense, complex, and bitter, with herbal and balsamic nuances, while the aroma is strong and penetrating, with notes reminiscent of roasted coffee, licorice, and bitter herbs. It pairs particularly well with aged cheeses such as Pecorino, fresh or semi-aged goat cheeses. Excellent with simple desserts like fruit tarts, dry biscuits, and rustic cakes. Perfect with roasted turkey and chicken, as well as delicate meats.

The Cream of Dried Tomatoes with Black Truffle (Tuber Aestivum) is characterized by its salty and spicy taste. The tomato with a strong and authentic flavor, combines with the intensity of the black truffle, giving life to a velvety and delicious cream, excellent for seasoning pasta, rice, bruschetta and white meats, or to be spread on a fragrant crouton. Perfect for lovers of strong and spicy flavors.

The appreciated characteristics are the sweetness and concentration that allows a higher yield in the kitchen than other sauces on the market, an ancient taste just like homemade sauce. Its use in the kitchen is multiple, from classic first and second courses of the Italian tradition to original recipes for appetizers and aperitifs, up to its use in catering for the creation of delicious pizzas and focaccia.
