Known and widely consumed in Mexico 9,000 years ago, it arrived in Europe aboard Christopher Columbus's three caravels when he returned from his voyage to America in 1492. Thanks to its strong flavour and vigorous aromatic character, it quickly spread throughout Spain and the Mediterranean basin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the only chili pepper capable of providing an exceptional spiciness without burning the taste buds. The \u003cem\u003epeperoncino\u003c\/em\u003e from this region is of excellent quality; its growth is favored by optimal humidity levels, and it does not need to be chemically treated.

An important city of ancient Magna Graecia, this very mountainous region in Southern Italy is located between the Ionian Sea (to the east) and the Tyrrhenian Sea (to the west) and is separated from Sicily by the Strait of Messina. Here, the \u003cem\u003epeperoncino\u003c\/em\u003e found its ideal habitat, becoming the exponent of a rich and healthy gastronomic culture.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThe history of the Calabrian tradition of preserves is so ancient that it is lost in time.
