Herbs and typical products of the Island of Elba

Honey, beer, oil, wild and aromatic plants

Two slices of schiaccia briaca with pine nuts, raisins and sugar on light backgroundThere are many specialties of the Island of Elba related to food and wine: small productions that offer a wide range of quality products with unique features and high authenticity, wines and recipes.

This richness originates primarily from the farmers' tradition rather than the maritime tradition, a simple tradition usually aimed at satisfying the needs of relatively small family units.

Among the most important products are olive oil, honey, jams, preserves, sweets, beers, and many wines and liqueurs, but also culinary specialties related to fishing, such as palamita and tuna.

Typical products of Elba, traditional recipes, and culinary specialties that will enrich your vacation on the Island of Elba with flavor and tradition.
