Respect for tradition is the basis of lemon cultivation in the Sorrento Peninsula, a typical product, unique in Italy and in the world, which has been awarded the Geographical Indication GI, an important guarantee of the quality of the raw material from which it takes Limoncello Piemme is alive. It is an oval lemon, medium-large in size, with a particularly succulent straw-yellow pulp and a peel with a very particular fragrance, due to the richness of the essential oils present. It is cultivated, under the supervision of the Consorzio del Limone di Sorrento PGI, from Vico Equense to Massa Lubrense in lands overlooking the sea rich in volcanic elements, according to the traditional method of pergolas and "straw". No chemical product is used on the fruits which, depositing on the peel, would alter the taste and aroma of the derived products.
