Spaghettoni

Bioalberti is a family-run farm, active for four generations among the hills of Umbria, at Poggio Aquilone, a medieval village dating back to the 1200s where we grow exclusively using organic methods. This is where our Spaghettoni come from

Spaghettoni

Since 1998 we have grown exclusively using organic methods, driven by the conviction that healthy eating starts from respected and fertile land. We grow legumes, cereals and olives, following sustainable agricultural practices such as crop rotation and organic fertilisation. We are a young and dynamic company that combines tradition and innovation, thanks also to our collaboration with the University of Agriculture of Perugia. We have an ambitious project: the recovery of ancient and forgotten varieties such as Verna and Gentilrosso wheat, Senatore Cappelli wheat, einkorn spelt, cicerchia (grass pea), black chickpea and hulled barley. Our desire.

We produce with respect for nature, offering authentic products. Our cereals represent the union between Umbrian agricultural tradition and sustainable farming. Spaghettoni di Poggio Aquilone made from âSenatore Cappelliâ durum wheat is milled in a small old water mill. Grown at Poggio Aquilone, in the hills of Umbria, it is the result of sustainable agricultural practices with careful attention to biodiversity. An artisanal and healthy reinterpretation of traditional Italian pasta. Made with 100% Senatore Cappelli semolina, an ancient and prized variety of Italian durum wheat, it is bronze-die extruded and slowly dried at low temperature to best preserve flavour, texture and nutritional properties.
