Vialone Nano:
the rice of our land

Carnaroli and Arborio: the best known Italian rices all over the world.

Vialone Nano rice started its life in 1937 following the mix of two important rice variants: Vialone and Nano, so called for the reduced height of the plant (in Italian “nano” means dwarf). It belongs to the family of semi-fine rices and is characterized by a small, elongated and round grain with a pronounced pearl.

It is especially recommended for risottos, as it absorbs condiments very well. Many important chefs around the world appreciate it for its soft and light body, and for the innate ability to keep cooking.
It’s widely considered the archetype of Italian risotto.

Arborio is an Italian classic. This rice variety whose large and pearled grains release abundance of starch during cooking, assuring an excellent blending of the ingredients and end product.

Carnaroli rice is a high quality rice. The exceptional compactness of its large and long grains combined with the excellent balance between liquid binding and low starch release, make it “the king of the Italian rice”.
