Let's first start from our first reference: "la montagna", because we we have always lived, and it is from the nature of Mount Cammarata that ours passion and which we have been promoting for a long time, but then we included "Excellencies" and we will explain why: I territori di San Cammarata Giovanni Gemini boast various excellences that make it a unique and special place.

Let's start for example, the olive oil produced here was classified as the best in the world at the "International Olive Oil Competition" also in 2022. Furthermore, the wine produced in a winery that has been in existence since 1469, has been awarded the Bronze in Brussels and preserves the oldest Nero d'Avola hybrid in Sicily.

But not only the food and wine sector shines for its excellence. Even the caciocavallo made with the rare Modica red cow was ranked as the best Sicilian cheese a few years ago.

Furthermore, a farm in Cammarata obtained second place in the red shrimp blind test for the best yogurt in Italy and in 2022 it also won the "Bronze" award at the "World Cheese Awards" with its Pepper flower. Driven by the desire to safeguard and enhance the island's agro-biodiversity, some local companies believe that producing healthy food that respects the environment and people is an ethical duty for every farmer. Currently, these companies cultivate ancient Sicilian grains in a biological way, from which they obtain stone-ground "russello" and "perciasacchi" flours and artisanal pasta, legumes, olive trees, natural flavors and dried fruit. Furthermore, they have the official headquarters of a field for the conservation of germplasm of ancient Sicilian fruits.

But our local excellences are not limited only to the culinary sector. In this area there are many small local artisans and also several "internationally renowned" companies that we invite you to discover on our website.
