Ideariso and Risi&Co.
One supply chain, two kinds of expertise.

A collaboration between Ideariso and Risi&Co. The rice is born in Ideariso’s paddies around Vercelli, and is grown, milled and packed within the same FSSC 22000-certified supply chain. Research into varieties and processing is Risi&Co.’s contribution. Together they have developed three products the market didn’t have: a Carnaroli that rests for twelve months before it reaches the shelf, a Carnaroli smoked over cherry wood with no additives, and a semi-milled Penelope Rosa that changes colour as it cooks when you add lemon or vinegar. Three different processes, one supply chain behind them. You’ll find them at Esselunga and in speciality shops, or you can order them directly here.
