For the past few years, Gianluigi Peduzzi produced and distributed organic Rustichella d'Abruzzo products to the large and growing natural foods consumer base in Europe. now he introduces this premium organic line to the U.S. The Peduzzi family recognized that the care and respect for growing methods and processing procedures, which have always been part of the company, could be taken one step further, and thus the organic line was born. All ingredients for the pasta, sauce, and extra virgin olive oil are certified organic by Istituto Mediterraneo di Certificazione, or I.M.C. The organic list represents the overall best-selling Rustichella d'Abruzzo cuts and shapes, and have been packaged in window boxes with a distinctive green version of the familiar Rustichella d'Abruzzo graphics.
