The star of this chocolate is the Pistacchio Verde di Bronte DOP, grown around Bronte on the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily.
Amedei uses 10% Bronte DOP pistachios, pairing their distinctive flavor with the purity and creamy texture of its white chocolate. The result brings together Tuscan chocolate craftsmanship with one of Sicily's most iconic ingredients.
Amedei Toscano Pistacchio is a wonderfully refined combination of white chocolate and Bronte pistachio.
The creamy sweetness of the chocolate is beautifully offset by the pistachio's distinctive nutty and subtly savory character, while notes of vanilla, honey and fresh milk add aromatic complexity.
For lovers of pistachio, this is an especially appealing expression—luxurious, unmistakably Italian and beautifully balanced.
The creamy sweetness and distinctive pistachio character make Toscano Pistacchio particularly attractive with aromatic and gently sweet wines.
A classic Italian pairing would be Moscato d'Asti, whose floral character and fresh acidity provide a beautiful contrast to the creamy chocolate. It is equally successful with Vin Santo, Passito di Pantelleria or a late-harvest Riesling.
For something celebratory, try it with a Demi-Sec Champagne, while espresso or cappuccino provides an excellent non-wine pairing.
