The Food Expert: 

We are two farmers and the custodians of one of the most famous and appreciated Sicilian foods: the Pistacchio di Bronte PDO and Slow Food Presidium. Our farm is located in Bronte, a small village on the slopes of Mount Etna. It was born from the fusion of two farms handed down from generations. Our Bronte pistachio trees grow in plots of wild, rocky terrain.

We will let you discover the lesser known Sicily, in particular what to see in Randazzo and Bronte with different rhythms from commercial tourism, but probably more authentic than the classic destinations.


Cancellation policy:  all bookings for the tour to discover Bronte Pistachios and what to see in Bronte and Randazzo be cancelled within 3 days from the start date of the experience. Read the Terms and Conditions.

pistacchio bronte

We are two farmers and the custodians of one of the most famous and appreciated Sicilian foods: the Pistacchio di Bronte PDO and Slow Food Presidium.

Our farm is located in Bronte, a small village on the slopes of Mount Etna. It was born from the fusion of two farms handed down from generations. Our pistachio trees grow in plots of wild, rocky terrain.

Bronte Pistachio is created from the perfect fusion between the lava soil, rich in substances and minerals, and the pistachio tree. It is a unique fruit, prized for its taste, aroma, colour and quality.

We offer a tour of the north-western slope of Mount Etna to travellers wishing to discover, at a different pace from commercial tourism, a lesser-known but probably more authentic Sicily than the classic destinations.

Bronte Pistachio

This variety of pistachio grows in the rugged terrain around Bronte, on the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily. It has got a bright emerald green colour and an intense aroma.
The trees are not fertilised or irrigated. They are treated and pruned very little. Bronte pistachio is harvested every two years. In the “unloading” years, farmers remove dry branches and buds so that the tree can release all its energy in the following season.
