Filippo Cea Roasted and Salted Almonds by Donna Francesca are grown in Puglia, in Mariotto, in our family-owned almond groves cared for daily. Hand-selected at harvest time, they are gently roasted and seasoned with extra virgin olive oil and Apulian sea salt to enhance their natural crunch and savoury character. The generously sized Filippo Cea almond stands out for its elegant, buttery flavour and its intense, enveloping aromatic profile — an authentic expression of the territory.
Filippo Cea roasted and salted almonds are perfect as an everyday fit snack or as the star of gourmet aperitifs. Italian roasted and salted almonds are extremely versatile in the kitchen: delicious on their own, they also work beautifully as a crunchy topping for salads, bowls and veloutés, roughly chopped over fish and white meats, or as a creative ingredient in savoury recipes and aperitif mixes. A simple yet refined touch to elevate vegetable dishes, risottos and gourmet preparations.
With a full, perfectly balanced taste, Italian Filippo Cea roasted and salted almonds stand out for their intense aromatic profile, elegant finish and long persistence on the palate. This sensory complexity comes from their natural richness in essential oils (59.57%), of which approximately 74% is oleic acid, followed by 18.6% linoleic acid and 5.5% palmitic acid — a unique combination that delivers a creamy texture and an enveloping flavour.
Italian almonds are among the most appreciated in the world for their quality and flavour. Among them stands the Filippo Cea variety, grown in Puglia and recognised for its generous size and distinctive taste.
Its story begins in the early 20th century, when agronomist Filippo Cea embarked on a path of experimentation through grafting, selection and research, giving rise to one of the most valued cultivars for both flavour and nutritional qualities.
Thanks to favourable pedoclimatic conditions and the quality of the soil, this almond tree — slender yet resilient — blends harmoniously into the Apulian landscape, becoming, with its rustic and elegant silhouette, a true icon of the territory. The tradition of this product is officially recognised: it is listed among Italy’s traditional agri-food products under the name Mandorla di Toritto.
A valuable ally in balanced diets, the Filippo Cea almond is considered a true superfood thanks to its nutritional profile and nutraceutical properties. The presence of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, selenium and zinc, together with vitamins E and B, supports cardiovascular wellbeing and cholesterol balance. In addition, its high content of unsaturated fatty acids promotes satiety, helping to limit the consumption of other foods.
