A versatile fruit in the kitchen but also in the pharmaceutical field
The Quattrone farm is located in Reggio Calabria (Italy). Specialized, for over 40 years, in the cultivation of bergamot (D.O.P.)
Our work is based on Organic Agriculture, cultivation that allows only the use of natural substances, that is present in nature, excluding the use of synthetic chemicals (fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, pesticides in general).
In full respect of nature, therefore, within a development model that can last in time.
It is tradition in time, pure passion and bond with our land.
The company has 4.5 hectares: 25% of production is destined to the fresh market, the remaining percentage to the processing industry.
The bergamot of the Società Agricola Quattrone is harvested from the end of September/beginning of October to the beginning of February.
The initial prospects for the coming seasons are promising and, considering all the variables, will reach a total volume higher than that of previous years.
What awaits us for the coming seasons
The two vintages prior to that of this year had been characterized by limited volumes and also by on average smaller sizes than usual.
Until this moment of the new season, however, we can say that the productive performances are back to those of three or four seasons ago.
The current harvests, moreover, are yielding very high quality fruits (internal and external). In the 4 hectares of the company, the breaks began at the beginning of October, waiting for the achievement of the right caliber and the right quality parameters.

Sicilian specialties since 1870 | History, taste and tradition
22/07/2021 in Macrigi
1870 - The foundation
The history of Torronificio Geraci can be considered emblematic of the wider history of family-run companies.
In 1870 Michele Geraci, an apprentice in a renowned pastry shop in Caltanissetta, decided to start his own business and carry out his activity.
It is the history of the garzonato, from which new productive activities are often developed and through which the most characteristic confectionery traditions of a territory are maintained. This is how the Torronificio Geraci was born.
From the year of its foundation to the second half of the ‘900 the torronificio Geraci stands out as a torronificio that exports its products throughout Italy.
2021 - the company today
Today the Torronificio M. Geraci is managed by the fourth generation of Geraci.
The priority is still the high quality of production, which makes use of local raw materials and original artisanal methods.
The 2021, 150° years of the family business, sees us still at the forefront in managing production. The goal is to live up to the passion and commitment of those who preceded us.
Prizes and awards
The Torronificio Geraci takes part in the Salone del Gusto in Turin since the first edition and was the only Sicilian company to be awarded by Unioncamere.
In the past, the company has also obtained an honorable mention as part of the Unioncamere Award 2007 – Section Long-lived and successful companies and a recognition of the CCIAA of Caltanissetta in July 2009.
The Geraci nougat
It’s a harmonious mix of three basic components: almonds, honey and pistachio.
The ingredients are melted together thanks to many hours of slow cooking, with so much love and patience: so the masterpiece of nougat is accomplished.
Once sealed it is good to keep it in tin boxes or glass jars, naturally away from sources of heat and moisture.
Our nougat contains the smells and flavors of Sicily: the ingredients are strictly chosen from the best Sicilian production of almonds, honey and pistachios, whose nutritional and organoleptic characteristics are, by far, the best in the world.
It’s not just nougat...
In fact, in addition to nougat we produce a wide range of other Sicilian delicacies, of course using the ingredients of our island.
Among these products I list some that are in high demand and that you will find in the Macrigi shop:
The baked goods
The real pasta
The handmade chocolate
Easter cakes
Martorana's fruits
Filled chocolates
Crispy sheets with almonds and pistachios – Quadrucci
