Santa Maria Coghinas · Province of Sassari · Sardegna

Carciofo Spinoso di Sardegna DOP

Cossu Pietrina Maria cultivates Carciofo Spinoso di Sardegna DOP in Santa Maria Coghinas, a municipality in the Sassari province where this protected artichoke thrives across Sardinia's designated 128-municipality zone. The spinoso's defining trait—a tender, fully edible stem paired with a flower head that balances bitter and sweet—sets it apart from mainland varieties. Low astringency makes it equally suited to raw consumption or cooking, a versatility that has anchored its reputation since Mediterranean antiquity.
