At Montella, in the heart of the Green Irpinia, among chestnut trees and underwood, thirty years ago began the history of the Perrotta Castagne Company.
The decision to start an activity related to the transformation of chestnuts is consequential to the strong chestnuts and wood vocation of our land. From ancient times, in fact, the Montella story and chestnut story, true wealth of these areas, are strictly correlated.
The chestnut tree is part of the landscape of the Terminio-Cervialto area, in which, thanks to the favorable climate and the composition of soil, it produces a high quality fruit organoleptic and product.
Specializing in the preparation of chestnut-based products, the company philosophy places strong emphasis on an ancient local method of treatment: the wood drying on the characteristic “gratali”. As time goes by the tradition of technological innovation is flanked to ensure high quality standards in all steps of the production process, from the choice of raw materials to final packaging.
The production process, in fact, represents the perfect synthesis between technology and craftsmanship, innovation and respect for tradition.
