Colfiorito, where our lentils come from, is a small town on the border between Umbria and Marche. Located on a 800mt. plateau on the sea level in the center of the Colfiorito Natural Park, a beautiful reservation in the heart of Italy, disseminated with marshes and jewels of religious architecture. Here, Antonio and Adriana Cappelletti supervise the family production of lentils, chickpeas, beans and other local agricultural products such as potatoes and saffron. Farmers selling their products out of jute sacks along the roads that cross the Colfiorito Park are still a common sight. All the steps of the lentils and chickpeas production, the sawing of the grains, the picking, only when the plants reach their carachteristic yellow and orange color, the natural dessication and the cleaning inside the stables and finally the packaging, are managed painstakingly by the Cappelletti family according to a tradition passed down from generations. The lentils from Colfiorito, small in size and of a beautiful green orange color are yet not protected by any DOP seal , but we guarantee their exceptional tenderness, rich flavor and outstanding quality.
