Ramassin of the Varaita Valley

Ramassin of the Varaita Valley

What is Ramassin? It is an ancient fruit found only in the mountain valleys of western Piedmont.
The Varaita Valley once again becomes a small treasure chest from which these unknown fruits find an exceptional habitat to ripen and acquire all their pleasantness. Walking among the plants, often grown spontaneously among the native vegetation, is to be intoxicated by the fragrance of what we like to call "grandma's". Yes, because they remind us of the kitchens of the past where jams and fruit salads were prepared that tasted like fruit.
This small plum is almost wild, very sweet with a very thin skin.
A small field fruit that tells a centuries-long story. The harvest begins in June and lasts until August.
