with Raffadali DOP Pistachio
"Fastuca"
Where does our brand come from...
Fastuca is a project that was created with the aim of enhancing a territory and its products of excellence.
Pistachio di Raffadali DOP and Sicilian Almond are the main products grown and processed in
our territory.
Fastuca is also the name of the pistachio plant in Sicilian. It derives from fustuq, a term used by the Arabs
to refer to the plant. We wanted to reintroduce this name so as not to lose our roots with
our past, with those who introduced the plant to Sicily, with those who for centuries cultivated it and handed down
to us all the secrets and tricks to obtain a superior product.
D.O.P. Recognition.
The Pistacchio di Raffadali D.O.P. obtained the important recognition following in-depth studies and research activities carried out by the promoting committee. A project started in 2016 and based on a very ancient history and tradition. The D.O.P. represents the most prestigious protection mark to which this product could aspire. On 22 March 2021, the registration of the name Pistacchio di Raffadali D.O.P. was published in the Official Journal of the European Union, containing the registration of the product (class 1.6) in the register of protected designations of origin and geographical indications.
Semi-finished products
The semi-finished products, available in Raffadali P.D.O. pistachio paste and Sicilian almonds, are made through careful manufacturing processes that keep all the organoleptic characteristics of the fruit intact.
Their versatility, combined with the ability to customize their quantity, turns them into excellent starting points for numerous pastry and ice cream recipes.
This is why they are chosen by more and more confectionery industries both from Italy and abroad.
