This highly-prized emerald is unique if it grows out of the rock. In some cases, an upturned umbrella is used. It’s still done entirely by hand: either by making the fruit fall off the trees straight into a container carried on the shoulder or by shaking the branches and collecting the pistachios on cloths stretched out beneath the plants.
According to local peasant faming tradition, thanks to being allowed to “rest”, the plant absorbs the substances it needs from the lava-rich soil, so producing a fruit richer in aromas with an unmistakable flavour.īecause of the steep, impassable environment and the danger that the fruit will be dispersed among the volcanic rocks, the “ sciarelle dei lochi“, the labour involved in harvesting them is expensive.

The green gold, or frastuca, as it used to be called when it was used as a medicine, is truly emerald in colour. It was the Muslims who introduced the most exquisite Middle Eastern plants into the fertile, lava-rich Sicilian soil: peaches, citrus fruits and pistachios. However, the elephants never had the chance to try the pistachios since these arrived in Bronte with the invasion of the Arabs. The enormous nasal hole on the trunk was mistaken for the eye of a Cyclops, and thus was born the legend of the Cyclopes in Sicily.
