The name FA.LU. CIOLI has always been synonymous with quality and authenticity in the preparation of the porchetta. The company now managed by Luca Cioli, was founded in 1917 by his grandfather Ovidio Cioli who, at the age of 17, had the intuition to buy a pig, bone it, season it with natural aromas, such as salt, pepper, garlic and rosemary, and then sew it up and cook it at high temperatures. From his brilliant intuition came the current "Porchetta di Ariccia".For about 100 years for four generations, Cioli family has passed down, from father to son, all the secrets of the production of this delicious gastronomic product, pride of Ariccia. Currently, the production is carried out in the large factory located in Ariccia, in the province of Rome. There are many gastronomic awards obtained in the national and international field, testifying to the tireless dedication and professionalism of the Cioli family in the preparation of the product.HYGIENE CRITERIA AND PRODUCT QUALITYThe term PROTECTED GEOGRAPHICAL INDICATION, better known by the acronym PGI, indicates a mark of origin that is attributed by the European Union to those agricultural products and foodstuffs for which a certain quality, the reputation or other characteristic depends on the geographical origin, and the production of which takes place in a specified geographical area.
