Filippone Organic Sicilian Dry Laurel in stems: intense aroma cultivated according to tradition in the Madonie mountains at 1000 meters above sea level. Harvested by hand and packaged using artisanal methods which offer the quality and preservation of the aroma over time.
Laurus nobilis, commonly known as laurel, is a hardy evergreen species native to the Mediterranean but adaptable to cooler climates. It is dioecious, with male and female flowers on separate plants. Historically, laurel’s evergreen leaves have symbolized glory, fame, peace, and protection. Its beneficial properties stem from essential oils found in both berries and leaves, which are richest when harvested in winter and early spring. Our laurel, naturally growing in the Madonie Park, is primarily gathered in spring and shade-dried to preserve its aromatic and therapeutic qualities. Widely used in Sicilian cuisine, it is recognized as a traditional Italian agri-food product (P.A.T) and officially designated as a typical Sicilian specialty by the Ministry of Agricultural Food and Forestry (Mipaaf).
