How to enjoy the tasting experience

The tasting is designed as a true “solar banquet”, combining grains, bright aromas and sweet-spiced notes in a harmonious crescendo.

1. The heart of the banquet: ancient-grain spaghetti

Cook the Spaghetti Tirrena, made with eight ancient Tuscan grains.
Their rough texture and authentic flavour represent a return to origins — an ancestral taste that recalls the earth and sunlight of Tuscany.

Dress the pasta with Morgan’s Sweet Tomato, a unique preparation enriched with Bourbon vanilla.
The neurogastronomic effect is remarkable: vanilla stimulates the brain areas linked to comfort, while the natural sweetness of the tomato creates a warm, enveloping perception.

2. The luminous gesture: the Luce Brillante Essence spray

Before serving, spray a single mist of Alajmo Essenza Luce Brillante over the pasta.
The combination of liquorice and saffron adds verticality and brilliance:

• saffron amplifies the perception of brightness and aromatic richness;

• liquorice adds depth and an elegant balsamic sweetness.

From a neurogastronomic perspective, the effect is powerful: the aroma perceived in advance enhances flavour and prepares the brain for a more intense and satisfying experience.

3. The golden finale: the Torta Tigre by Alajmo

Complete the journey with the Torta Tigre, made with chocolate and saffron.
The chocolate envelops the senses with depth and warmth, while the saffron provides a persistent, elegant aromatic radiance.
A dessert that activates pleasure, emotion and curiosity, leaving an extraordinarily harmonious finish.
