The Piedmont IGP hazelnuts from Alta Langa, harvested and processed by Cascina Fontane, are toasted and delicately salted here. Fragrant, tasty, delicious! Cascina Fontane performs the roasting using the patented method called "Vertiflow." A jet of hot air suspends the product, making it rotate on itself: this ensures uniform cooking of the hazelnuts. Additionally, these are completely dehumidified, resulting in perfectly cooked interiors for a decidedly more fragrant taste. This process does not affect the flavor of the product and thoroughly cleans the fruits, preserving their oily component in the final phase, the sorting. The hazelnuts are indeed manually selected one by one to remove defective ones and ensure perfection. The Piedmont IGP Hazelnut: excellence of Alta Langa Alta Langa is the natural home of an excellent variety of hazelnuts, belonging to the species Corylus Avellanae: the Tonda Gentile Trilobata, since 1993 bearing the designation "Protected Geographical Indication."
