Renowned by chefs and gourmets around the world, Acquerello Aged Carnaroli Rice is the pinnacle of Italian risotto rice — a harmonious blend of tradition, innovation, and craftsmanship. Grown and processed by the Rondolino family on the historic Colombara estate in the Vercelli province of Piedmont, each grain embodies decades of dedication to perfection.
Aged for over two years, Acquerello rice undergoes a meticulous process that enhances flavor, consistency, and nutrient retention. The signature helix method—exclusive to the Rondolino family—gently refines the grains to maintain their integrity and prevent breakage. In a final, patented step, the rice’s precious germ is reintroduced, restoring natural nutrients and giving Acquerello its distinctive, rich taste and creamy texture.
Ideal for risotto, rice salads, or elegant side dishes, Acquerello maintains its structure even during long cooking, absorbing flavors beautifully while remaining al dente. Packaged in a premium, easy-open tin, it makes a thoughtful gourmet gift or a must-have pantry staple for anyone passionate about authentic Italian cuisine.
