The Massese Bean is a Traditional Agricultural Product (PAT) on the national list approved by the Ministry of Agriculture And Forestry, whose requirements are regulated by the production discipline of the Tuscany Region.

Features

The massese bean has a slightly elongated round shape, color from beige to light brown.
The size is medium small and the texture pasty.

It is produced in July-August.

Cultivation

The product owes its traditionality and quality both to the particularity of the cultivar and to the production technique, which remained unchanged over time.
The seed is self-produced in the company, thus maintaining the native genetic heritage of the species.
The pedoclimate conditions are responsible for the fresh and tasty taste of the bean.

It is consumed by lexicon, topping with olive oil; it is great in soups because it produces a dense and tasty broth.

Once the masses bean was sown to be harvested in grass, today it collects as a grain bean.
