Amato

Amato, a small municipality of 772 inhabitants within Calabria's Catanzaro province, embodies a terrain where specific environmental conditions yield distinct flavors. The warm Mediterranean climate, paired with varied Calabrian geography, creates an ideal setting for unique agricultural and artisanal products. Here, 11 protected denominations converge, among them the intensely flavored Capocollo di Calabria DOP and the vibrant Clementine di Calabria IGP. Its sun-drenched hills also yield robust Olio di Calabria IGP and contribute to the character of Calabria IGT wines. From traditional Salsiccia di Calabria DOP to the distinctive Liquirizia di Calabria DOP, Amato’s land gives birth to a remarkable array of gastronomic treasures, deeply rooted in its specific climate.
