The taste of Calabria

Inline Image

Start your Italian culinary journey with the sweet Tropea onion in fine wine vinegar. These famous deep red delicacies hale from the southern Calabria region and are quite sought after in Europe during the harvest season.

Although you might be able to cultivate this petite size onion anywhere, it will never have the true Tropean taste unless it grows in its native Mediterranean soil heated by the year round warm climate. Another unique property of this onion is its low level of the enzyme responsible for tears. Add a touch of pizzazz by using these onions with salads, sandwiches or as a meat accompaniment.

Alpes’ archives revealed

In 1970, at the Roman Campidoglio, Prime Minister Andreotti presented Alpes with an international award, the Golden Hercules.

The Ercole d’oro can be compared to the Academy Award of business. It signifies recognition of the superior production, business and spirit of cooperation demonstrated in regards to the distribution sector.
