With our organic fruit Preserves, you will discover how the tastes of fruits and vegetables can be combined with notes that only the goji berry is able to give to the palate. And, in addition to the taste, you will have a uniquely nutritional product, rich in antioxidants.
All of our Preserves are cold processed in order to conserve the organoleptic, nutritional and nutraceutic characteristics of the products used in the recipes. Primarily the goji berries, which are gathered by hand on our farms in Val di Chiana (Arezzo). We scrupulously respect the seasonality of the goji berries as well as the other ingredients, gathering the fruit at the moment of their natural maturation. This allows us to obtain the maximum flavor and freshness, as the products are worked by artisans soon after their harvest.
In this way, our Preserves have the same characteristics as the fresh product, with unique organaleptic properties and flavors to discover. We have been inspired by recipes in the Tuscan tradition, with a touch of innovation.
Our Preserves have been designed to accompany fresh or aged cheese and whole Tuscan goji berries have been added. Only organic brown sugar has been used so as to obtain a smooth consistency. A small curiosity: according to how many goji berries are present, the flavor of the Preserve may vary slightly, rendering each bite new and different.
Besides pairing divinely with cheese, our Preserves can be enjoyed on bread or as an addition to yogurt or ice cream.
