Artisanally produced orzo and durum wheat semolina pasta.

Several years ago, Giacomo Santoleri left his homeland of Rome and headed for the mountainous terrain of Abruzzi with the intention of producing the best beans, grains and pasta in Italy. Using organic farming techniques and producing only small quantities, there's no question this meticulous farmer has met his goal. Bucking the trend toward industrialized agriculture, Santoleri personally oversees every aspect of production, from seeding to packaging. And the result is an exceptional line of organic grains that has won the praise of chefs all over Italy.

Named for the ancient Greek word for maccheroni, artisan Giacomo Santoleri's Makaira is the finest pasta Paul Ferrari has ever tasted. This distinctive, square-cut, rough-textured pasta is slow-dried and bursting with flavor and nutrients. An A.G. Ferrari exclusive!
