Perfect gift for lovers of Italian foods and chefs of all levels. Fantastic collection brings together three of our Academia Barilla favorites: 100% Italian extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar of Modena and pesto alla Genovese.

Academia Barilla’s regional extra-virgin olive oils are made with carefully handpicked Italian olives, harvested at the perfect degree of maturity, yielding small amounts of oil for superior quality and freshness in every bottle.

One-hundred-percent Italian extra-virgin olive oil is very versatile: use for sautéing, dipping or to lend a distinct olive flavor to a variety of dishes. 17 oz.

Academia Barilla’s aged balsamic vinegars are personally selected in Modena, Italy, by a panel of top experts through blind taste tests. Made with grapes found only in Italy, all are distinguished by rich aromas, full-bodied flavor and sophisticated, well-structured taste—all due to the high quality of grapes, the wooden casks in which they age and the timing of the transfers from one cask to another.

This balsamic vinegar of Modena was aged for three years in oak and cherry barrels; no sugar added. 17 oz.

Harvested by hand in the Liguria region of Italy using high-quality ingredients, the fresh pesto is rich in unique aromas and flavors. Pesto alla Genovese uses basil from the town of San Remo, where the special microclimate and ideal soil favor the growth of the plant, yielding a particularly balanced fragrance and taste.

The thick sauce with pine nuts is perfect over pastas, such as trofie, lasagna and tagliolini. It possesses excellent versatility, as it can also be used on pizza or to flavor vegetable soups. This premium pesto proves to be a true culinary tradition of Ligurian cooking. 4¾ oz. Made in Italy.
