DIAMANTE VERDE DELL'ETNA AZIENDA AGRICOLA

We are a farm that we take care of the production of pistachio from several generations. With the commitment and dedication that now distinguish our family for decades, we cultivate and disclose a high quality natural product in the world. The Arabs were to introduce pistachio culture in our territory. The collection is done manually also because the lava soil, particularly steep and irregular does not allow the use of mechanical means. The following phase to the collection consists of the property, for which you need special machinery that allow you to remove the external peel of the pistachio. Subsequently it is necessary to dry, or through the exposure to the heat of the sun on ample concrete spaces or through the use of large greenhouses. Pistachio has energy and antioxidant properties that reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases and brings a considerable quantity of vitamins and iron.
