| Production method | The harvesting of the Sorrento lemons is carried out strictly by hand, to prevent the fruit from being damaged, and precedes a series of processes, which Piemme carries out in-house to produce Limoncello. In fact, the infusion phase in very pure alcohol and beet sugar (without any additives, syrups or sweeteners), the extraction of the peels from the containers (in which the precious infusion remains) and the bottling are carried out in about 4-7 days in Piemme's in-house laboratory, a true bastion of craftsmanship but characterised by technological innovation and strict quality controls. |

- Start up year: 1969
Piemme was founded in 1969 on the initiative of Sorrentine artisans dedicated to the production of lemon-based confectionery specialties and the more traditional Limoncello. Based on this historic recipe, handed down from family to family, and thanks to innovative technological know-how, since 1986 the typical infusion of Sorrento lemon peels, together with baba, has become the product and pride of Piemme.
The passion for territorial traditions and the care for the genuineness of its ingredients pushes PIEMME to follow all the stages of the production chain, from the cultivation, harvesting and peeling of the lemon to the infusion and bottling, which take place in the internal laboratory: The process, artisanal but technologically innovative, is followed by the Quality Control Manager, for the selection of products of excellence. Equal care is reserved for the production of confectionery specialties, being PIEMME among the few companies that can boast an internal pastry laboratory. Read more
