Quality is born from respect: for the land, the wheat and the people who eat it.
We grow only pure Senatore Cappelli wheat on our own land in Minervino di Lecce. No synthetic fertilisers: we accept yields up to 60-75% lower than intensive farming in exchange for clean, living wheat.
Crop rotation and natural green manure feed the soil instead of forcing it. Every field rests and regenerates, season after season, just as our great-grandparents did.
The wheat is mechanically cleaned and stored without pesticides, using ancient farming techniques. Accredited independent laboratories certify zero glyphosate residue.
Slow stone milling at low temperature with light hulling preserves the living wheat germ: protein (12.58 g per 100 g), fibre (3.27 g per 100 g) and the authentic scent of the grain.
The pasta is bronze-drawn and slowly dried at low temperature: the rough surface holds the sauce and the pasta always cooks al dente.
We process our wheat with the utmost respect for the environment: energy used wisely, recyclable packaging and a short supply chain, from field to pack.
Nothing is thrown away on the farm: bran and milling by-products go back into the agricultural cycle as natural fertilisers. It is our way of closing the loop.
Chemical analyses certified by accredited third-party laboratories, per 100 g of pasta.
Well beyond legal requirements: strength, structure and always al dente.
A higher content than conventional pasta, for a balanced gut flora.
With saturated fat (0.45 g) and sugars (1.68 g) close to zero.
Analyses by accredited third-party laboratories confirm it in black and white: glyphosate not detectable. Concrete proof of farming that nourishes the soil instead of forcing it.
Zero glyphosate residue verified by accredited independent laboratories. Nutritional values certified by chemical analysis. Recyclable packaging and a "nothing is wasted" philosophy.
