Grown in our fields in the Vicenza countryside, fresh basil is harvested from June to September during the hours when the day's heat subsides and the leaves reach peak aromatic richness. Processing takes place within a few hours to keep both fragrance and freshness intact. An Italian, strictly non-GMO product, it is the result of a short, fully traceable supply chain that guarantees raw material quality from field to puree. Its intense, enveloping and unmistakable aroma makes it the benchmark ingredient for the canning industry in creating pesto, sauces, marinades and spreads.

Treatment process

The basil is selected, washed and minced to create a puree with only added oil and salt. Specific ingredients can be added to the base mixture of chopped leaves (2-5 mm or 5-7 mm) upon client request. The entire production cycle complies with Global G.A.P. standards, ensuring safety at every stage. Available in two versions depending on requirements:

▸ Hot-processed: guarantees low bacterial load, reduced salt content and a high percentage of basil.

▸ Cold-processed: preserves the freshest aromatic notes over time.
