Editorial Reviews:
Our producer, Sabatino Abagnale has been one of the pioneers of the repropagation of the real San Marzano tomatoes. Everything started a few years ago, when Sabatino obtained a few of the very original San Marzano seeds from an agricoltural research center near Naples and started experimenting on his crops at the feet of the Mount Vesuvius. Once commonly cultivated in the area of Naples and Sorrento and called the "red gold", San Marzano tomatoes have been progressively disappearing, as a consequence of industrialization, leaving the space to more productive and resistant genes of tomatoes. Our selected San Marzano are a protected variety and are hand picked only between August and September, when tomatoes are naturally ripe. Thanks to Sabatino and a few other farmers, we now have the immense pleasure to taste an exceptionally aromatic tomato, soft skinned and juicy, with a very low acidic content, million years apart from any other canned tomatoes you'll ever taste. No additives, no preservatives, just the tomatoes in their own juice, ready to become the quintessential ingredient of all your pizza and pasta sauces.
