From the producer:

Maraviglia sits on a bucolic hill in Monte San Savino, Tuscany. The story goes that Maraviglia was named by ancient pilgrims traveling from France to the Vatican. When they stopped and looked around, they marveled at the beauty and serene energy of the place and said: “Che’ Maraviglia!” What a marvelous place.

Already a SLOW FOOD Presidia for its award winning Olive Oil, derived from the restoration of previously abandoned ancient Tuscan groves, Agricola Maraviglia is now focusing on becoming an example for soil regeneration. All the grains and legumes that we use for Miso, Tamari and Shoyu are grown on our 6 hectare property. They are part of a specific rotation program that aims at re-establishing a healthy and balanced soil by providing the correct microbial balance in the first layer of our grounds. Some of our practices include no tilling, no introduction of external fertilizers, selective composting and brewing humus teas from our 2 hectares of pristine forest area.
