Are you looking for a PAT product?

PAT stands for Traditional Agri-Food Product. It is a trademark used exclusively in Italy to distinguish traditional and niche products, with such a reduced diffusion that it does not contribute to the assignment of protected denominations such as PDO and PGI. The aim of the brand is to enhance the local specialties obtained with traditional processing, preservation and maturing methods.

Almonds are a PAT product: the almond harvest takes place in the months of August-September and can be either manual, "beating", or mechanical. The drying takes place in the sun for about three days, then the product is stored in the warehouses waiting to be shelled and sometimes peeled. Sicilian cultivars have a higher content of fats, amygdalin and sugars than other almonds, which give confectionery derivatives a unique and inimitable flavor. Another salient feature is the absence of alphatoxins in the fruits, due to both the climate and cultivation techniques.

Sicilian Pistachio is a PAT product: no other pistachio has such a bright emerald green color and such an intense, reinous, fatty aroma. Its trees are a tangle of thin and twisted branches that in September turn pink, for the bunches of pistachios that, closed in the husk, look like sugared almonds. It is a demanding and tiring cultivation both because the plants bear fruit every two years, and because they grow in rough terrain where it is impossible to use the help of machinery: pistachios are in fact harvested by hand, one by one.
