Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The scent of this pesto is enough to convince you of the difference with any other pesto you have tried before. The flavor will then remind you of when pesto was still prepared with traditional expertise, using a mortar and pestle (and not the blender, unlike the current unfortunate practice). So never mind if we found this one in Tuscany. The basil they use is genuinely from Liguria - it's the famous basil from PrĂ  (a small village on the southwestern outskirts of Genoa). Prepared with infinite passion and expertise by Francesco and Lorenzo Lombardi, who have succeeded in combining the classic ingredients basil, of course, but also extra virgin olive oil, pine nuts, garlic, Parmigiano and Pecorino Romano this condiment has an arresting aroma that will not only delight your senses, but prove hauntingly persistent in your memory.
