<p>Tuscan ivy honey is one of the most difficult to produce due to its high crystallization speed and the high percentage of water it naturally contains. Our honey has therefore been slightly dehydrated in order to preserve its peculiar organoleptic characteristics (if stored with high humidity in a few weeks, fermentation processes would be triggered which would irreparably damage its characteristics). It presents itself with a fine, homogeneous and consistent crystallization. Light in color, it gives off a slight fragrance of green, of grass, pleasantly confirmed also in the mouth. It is suggested to taste ivy honey as it is without heating it to soften it. Ivy is an evergreen, lianiform and climbing plant very common in the woods and shady uncultivated areas of Tuscany. It can grow creeping or clinging, reaching considerable heights (20-25 m) with this system. It is frequently found clinging to the walls of old abandoned ruins. Flowering occurs around mid-September, and is greatly appreciated by bees. The fruits, small black berries, are an excellent food reserve for birds in winter.</p> <p><strong>SIZE / WEIGHT:</strong> 250 grams.</p> <p><strong>ORIGIN:</strong> Between Florence and Siena, on the hills that gently descend from the ancient Romanesque parish church of Santo Stefano in Campoli towards the towns of Mercatale in Val di Pesa and Montefiridofi (300 m asl).</p> <p><strong>RECOMMENDED PAIRINGS:</strong> Ideal in the classic breakfast on rusks.

<p><strong>SIZE / WEIGHT:</strong> 50 grams*.</p> <p>The prized black truffle, or <strong>Norcia truffle</strong> is harvested from December 1st to March 15th. The "peridium" appears as a black warty surface, with small reddish areas if the product is immature. The gleba is black-brown in color with very dense whitish veins. The scent is aromatic, not too pungent, and the flavor is delicate. Widespread in the Central Apennines, in Piedmont and in the Veneto. It can be grown in suitable land specially reforested with particular tree species. Perfect for a first or second course of freshly grated meat for an original touch of taste and unique flavor.</p> <p><strong>STORAGE AND USE:</strong> The fresh truffle is a product that must be consumed within a few days to fully savor its taste and aroma. After this period of time it is still possible to eat the product, bearing in mind that it will begin to lose some of its qualities that make it so special. Small specks of mold are absolutely normal as the truffle is a hypogean mushroom and, like all mushrooms, has a vegetative body represented by a whitish mould. The truffle literally arises from the symbiosis of molds and roots from which they steal the nutrients.<strong>The truffle needs external cleaning before being used</strong>, ideally under cold running water with a toothbrush, so as to free it from any earth residues and small mold spots. To best preserve it, we recommend storing it in the fridge for about 7 days, otherwise it can easily be frozen.</p> <p><strong>WHERE IT IS:</strong> The truffle is a fruit of the earth, an extremely precious and sought-after underground treasure. Like mushrooms, they grow spontaneously in the soil at a depth ranging from 10 to 60 centimeters in free areas, such as woods or uncultivated land, along river banks or in controlled areas called "truffle grounds".</p> <p><strong>COLLECTING:</strong> Truffle hunters are those who, with the help of trained dogs, work in the search for truffles. In order to be able to carry out the activity, it is necessary to be in possession of a specific authorization issued by the Mountain Communities.</p> <p><strong>SHIPPING:</strong> This product is shipped only in the first days of the week according to the availability and delivered in 24/48 hours.</p> <p><strong>PRODUCER:</strong> Az. Agr. Diotallevi Tartuficultura</p> <p>*The selected size is made up of truffles of an average size less than or equal to about 15 grams.</p>

<p>Strawberry tree honey is considered one of the finest honeys and one of the most difficult to produce due to the late ripening of the flower.
