Senatore Cappelli is an ancient grain variety coming from North Africa, introduced and cultivated in Italy because it had higher yields per hectare, than other local wheat varieties.This wheat is cultivated - respecting the ancient cultivation method- in a pristine area in the Lucan hinterland (named "calanchi" : hills of the upper Murgia of Puglia).

The short distance (only 50 km), between the area of ​​wheat cultivation and the pasta factory, provides to this production the denomination "short chain" which means that the flour is delivered to the pasta factory immediately after grinding. The Senatore Cappelli pasta is dried at a low temperature for about 50 hours! Grace to this simulation of natural sun drying the pasta Senatore Cappelli is rich in flavours and supplemented with vitamins and mineral salts.

Bronze drawing and slow drying ensure our homemade pasta the flavor and texture of the past. Our organic indigenous durum wheat Senatore Cappelli guarantees high protein content, high digestibility and an excellent supply of Omega 3 and Omega 6. The energy used for the production of organic pasta comes 100% from renewable sources and is completely self-produced by our chain. We produce in certified organic and with sustainable agronomic technologies.
