Description

Torrone Granpistacchio – Soft nougat with 22% almonds and 18% roasted pistachios

The crunchiness of the almonds, the scent of the roasted pistachios, brings a wonderful sensation on the nose and palate. Added when the dough is still hot, the roasted almonds and pistachios are mixed slowly into the nougat. Then spend an entire night in wooden frames to get the perfect consistency of the torrone before “the cut”, which is performed by hand.

Presented in an elegant case that shows the generous quantity, and high quality of the nuts within.

Cut in thin slices, or tear in big chunks! The choice is yours.

Region

Veneto

Veneto
Veneto is a north-west region of the Italy that branches from the Dolomite Alps in the north down to the beautifully blue waters of the Adriatic Sea in the south.  Along the southern coast is its capital Venice. The city throughout time has been regarded extremely highly in literature, art, film and theatre. Venice’s beautifully unique water ways connected by over four hundred bridges creates a perfect setting for anyone wanting to tell an atmospheric story. Its Baroque and Gothic styled architecture along with the world-famous glass workers add to the aesthetic of the city.

Just north of Venice lies Treviso, a small city that is home to the most famous cuisine to come from Veneto, the creamy and soft Tiramisu. This layered coffee-soaked biscuit and mascarpone dessert is among the most proud and renowned food to come from Italy. Prosecco which is the constant rival to Champagne also originated in Treviso.  The bubbling wine is like champagne however the difference being Prosecco is fermented in steel barrels not wood.  Enjoy it with a splash of Aperol or Campari for the summery ‘Spritz’.
