Costoluto

Pachino and its treasure

A box of flavour from rural Sicily under the Christmas tree.

Dear customers,
this year our 2025 Christmas catalogue, titled "Pachino and its treasure", takes you on a journey to the heart of our land.
Every Christmas we showcase our region and its typical products, elements that have always represented the added value of our food culture, so now is the perfect time to present the star of our land: the tomato.

The reason for our choice lies in the unconditional love for our land, a love comparable to that for one’s own children. To love your land unconditionally means to stay and fight, holding on to values and landscapes that have always shaped our thinking: We cannot change the past, but we can influence the future.

The "treasure" of Pachino that we celebrate is rooted in its agricultural history. After a century of an economy based on grape must for French wines, between the 1960s and 70s, there was a rapid agricultural shift: vineyards gave way to tomato cultivation. Farmers radically transformed the landscape by installing greenhouses for protected crops. It is here that the tomato grows so good and tasty that it earned the IGP mark in 2002.

The Costoluto tomato has a regular, flattened shape with pronounced ribs on the surface. The flesh is firm, juicy and aromatic in flavour. Perfect for eating fresh in salads or sliced. It is also excellent for making sauces, passata and condiments, as well as suitable for baking or grilling.

By choosing our products, you continue to discover the Pachino Tomato and the story of this wonderful land.
