The historic Somma ‘pastificio’ is a small, entirely artisanal, company that has been producing pasta on this site for centuries. It is located in the historic centre of Gragnano near Napoli, Sorrento, Pompeii e Amalfi in Italy, recognised as the ‘birthplace of macaroni’. We have recreated the manual production methods typical of Gragnano all those years ago, restoring the historic splendour of our lab in the only way possible: returning to the production of macaroni and a pasta museum. Our process is based solely on the use of large-grain durum wheat semolina (as was once milled on the site), with high levels of gluten and proteins, all combined gently with water from the nearby springs, in the end followed by a low-temperature drying process tailored to each shape.

Toured the pasta factory, and historic pasta museum, to learn about the history of pasta making in Gragnano and how they make it today. Very friendly team who were very accommodating of our last minute request. Please email them or call ahead and you can arrange a time to tour. (We had our hotel make the initial request in Italian, but on arrival, discovered that the customer relations team all speak excellent English). We had a private tour for just our family and they were terrific.
