Aldo Armato ‘Pomodori Ciliegino’ Semi-Dried Tomatoes in Olive Oil — Liguria, 300g
The Armato family has been tending the ancient Taggiasca olive groves above Alassio on the Ligurian coast for generations. It was in 1982 that we first encountered Aldo Armato — small in stature and modest in nature, but fiercely proud of a family tradition rooted in some of Italy’s most prized olive oil. Today, Aldo and Laura’s legacy lives on through their daughter Alessandra and her husband Giordano Mazzariol, who have extended the family’s locally renowned olive oil into a series of pantry products that are, as we put it, devastatingly delicious.
These Pomodori Ciliegino are the proof. Sweet cherry tomatoes are harvested at the height of summer, semi-sundried to concentrate their flavor, then packed in the family’s Taggiasca olive oil — fruity, delicate, and unmistakably Ligurian. The result is a bite-sized revelation: intensely sweet, gently savory, and rich with the warmth of the Italian sun. Scatter them over flatbreads and pizzas, fold into pasta, toss through salads, or serve straight from the jar alongside a cheese board. Few pantry items earn their price tag this decisively.
