Sesame Bar Pasteli with Aegina Pistachios PDO 70g Aiakeion

Only the best pistachios are processed into the sweet pasteli bar by Aiakeion. And you can taste that!

Pistachios from the Greek island of Aegina (EHyee-nah), are prized throughout Greece, and indeed the world, for their delicious flavor and crunchy texture.

Located in the Saronic Gulf near mainland Greece, Aegina has the perfect temperature, climate, and soil for growing pistachios, and is recognized by the EU as a P.D.O. (Protected Designation of Origin).
The variety of pistachio that grows on Aegina is Koilarati. A more rare variety that produces a smaller nut with a flavor and texture that is superior to others.

A result of unique weather patterns, Aegina is one of the driest locations in Greece. The pistachios are essentially dry-farmed on the chalky soils, imparting a concentrated flavor to the mature nut. They receive only two small doses of water twice in late summer, to increase the ratio of opened (i.e. ripened) nuts.
