After passing the pretty village of Cutigliano,<\/strong> we climb to the highest peak. The one that once set the border between Tuscany and Emilia, or rather between the then Grand Duchy of Tuscany and the Duchy of Modena. In the last part of the road the slope increases considerably and it is as if we were entering a fairy tale, in the middle of a forest of fir trees that stand out at the edge of the road. Here we will discover a delicacy: the Abetone blueberry jam.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are in the production laboratory of Azienda Montana Il Baggiolo<\/a>, which takes its name precisely from the equivalent of blueberry in the Emilian dialect. Their flagship product is, precisely, blueberry jam.<\/strong> They are picked near the woods above, along paths that lead to discover the wonders of nature.<\/p>\n

The family-run business boasts<\/strong> a strong connection to the surrounding area. The idea of handcrafting these jams from the area’s most typical fruits is also synonymous with a commitment to the natural environment, which must be preserved in its entirety.<\/p>\n

Abetone<\/a> is a land of skiers and winter tourism, famous for its famous slopes and the scenic setting of its mountains. It is the pleasantly slow pace of these places that allows the production of a quality product. The blueberries are harvested by hand, and the artisanal processing<\/strong> of the raw material guarantees a healthy, fresh-tasting product<\/strong> that faithfully tells the story of this area.<\/p>\n

It’s already time to taste this goodness made from blueberries<\/strong>!<\/p>\n
