Salmoriglio Siciliano

The Azienda Due Palmenti is located in Pedara, a town situated on the slopes of Etna in the Due Palmenti district in the heart of eastern Sicily, a territory rich in great rural traditions handed down for generations, and this is where Salmoriglio Siciliano is produced. Green hills and majestic Etna in the background, the climate here is characterised by mild winters and hot, sunny summers. The sandy soil is rich in elements originating from the lava flows that have followed one another over the centuries, making it a place suited to hosting a great variety of native and local crops. Here the habitat is ideal for aromatic herbs, which grow vigorous and intensely fragrant, as well as rich in aromas and intense, unique flavours. The Company supports sustainable agriculture with a low environmental impact, with the precise aim of obtaining genuine products that enhance the typical character of the territory and local traditions while achieving the highest quality standards. In 2018, the young agronomist Martino started out by purchasing, together with his family, an abandoned, fully terraced plot of land. He cleared it completely and began his project of growing aromatic plants, enhancing the typical character of the territory, thus obtaining unique aromas and fragrances.
