A L’OLIVIER BASQUE PEPPER FRUIT VINEGAR WINS FOOD AND BEVERAGE (FABI) AWARD FOR BREAKING NEW GROUND
Elizabeth, New Jersey— Each year, The National Restaurant Association Show names the winners of the Food and Beverage (FABI Awards), recognizing food and beverage products that innovate in taste, creativity, packaging and profit potential. On March 7, the 2019 FABI award winners were announced. These important products will shape the future of taste throughout the industry for years to come. De Medici’s A L’Olivier Basque Pepper Fruit Vinegar was honored with this distinction. Since 2014, DeMedici and their parent company Atalanta have received ten FABI’s, with De Medici recognized for several FABI’s for their innovative products.
This year, De Medici Imports celebrated its 40th anniversary as an importer and distributor of specialty foods. Founded in 1979, this fine vinegar represents De Medici’s mission to source premium products crafted by artisans who produce the best quality the world has to offer.
“We’re proud to be recognized with this FABI,” says De Medici Imports Executive Vice President Steve Kaufman. “It is one of the greatest validations for this truly innovative product from our long-time partner A L’Olivier.”
Since 1822, A L’Olivier has been a purveyor of extra-virgin olive oils and vinegars to refined Parisian palates. With beautifully presented products and a world-renowned reputation for quality, their product line has expanded over time to include infused olives oils and fresh fruit vinegars, like this Basque Pepper Fruit Vinegar. Crafted with bell peppers and the famous Piment d’Espelette pepper of the Basque region, it’s a mix of 40% fruit pulp and premium white wine vinegar. The fresh fruit pulp’s vibrant flavor delivers until the bottle’s last drop, whether it’s used to glaze a rack of lamb, add a pop of flavor to roasted chicken or brighten up grilled calamari. The fruit vinegar also makes a great salad dressing when paired with extra-virgin olive oil and sea salt, and a fun addition to a Bloody Mary.
Thomas Gellert, President of Atalanta, states, “one of our company’s core values is to ‘live by innovation’ and we are very excited and proud to be once again recognized by the National Restaurant Association for A L’Olivier’s Basque Pepper Fruit Vinegar. This is our tenth FABI award and our team continues to strive to find the most innovative specialty partners and products.”
A L’Olivier Basque Pepper Fruit Vinegar will be highlighted at the 2019 National Restaurant Association Restaurant, Hotel-Motel Show, which will take place May 18-21 in Chicago at McCormick Place. Show attendees will be able to sample A L’Olivier Basque Pepper Fruit Vinegar at FABI Award Tasting events and at the Atalanta Booth #2409. We look forward to seeing you there.

AMEDEI TUSCANY, the luxury Italian Chocolate Maker, joins De Medici’s Brand Portfolio
Elizabeth, NJ— De Medici Imports, a leader in taste education for the specialty food community, announced their partnership with renowned chocolate maker, AMEDEI TUSCANY as their exclusive importer today. De Medici Imports, known for connecting old-world artisan producers with American retailers and consumers, will debut the AMEDEI collection at the Summer Fancy Food Show on June 30-July 2, 2018 at New York City’s Javits Center, booth # 2336.

Her reputation for making this superb chocolate is known to chocolate connoisseurs, and now we look forward to strategically expanding their market in both retail and foodservice channels."
Luigi Cigliano, CEO of AMEDEI comments on the relationship with De Medici, “AMEDEI has found the perfect partner in De Medici. We admire their market expertise, particularly with Italian imports, and regard them as authorities on how to properly translate our food, and our philosophy, to the American customer."
AMEDEI TUSCANY is located in the picturesque town of Pontedera, outside Pisa in the Tuscan countryside. There they craft the most beautiful chocolate using only the best cocoa—Trinitario & Criollo beans—and never use soy lecithin. Producing superior chocolate with great love and devotion, and by using genuine old-fashioned methods and antique machinery, this artisanal house is honored today as being one of the greatest of chocolate makers in the world.
“I believe De Medici will allow us to take our next step in the USA market. Over the past decade, AMEDEI chocolate has been beloved by Americans, and it is our wish that will continue with De Medici’s vast array of partners. Most of all, I appreciate their history of importing excellent Italian products, opening true artisan crafts to a wider audience,” states Luigi Cigliano, CEO of AMEDEI.
Cecilia Tessieri started AMEDEI TUSCANY in 1998 with her first bean-to-bar chocolate bar, Toscano Black 70%. AMEDEI is known for being one of the originators of small batch, direct trade, bean-to-bar chocolate. AMEDEI directly sources the beans from the most prestigious growers of cocao from small plantations in South America, Madagascar, Jamaica and the Caribbean Islands of Trinidad and Grenada. This allows AMEDEI to know precisely where their beans originate, establish the cocoa’s high quality and ensure that the growers are fairly compensated.
"We are proud to continue to hold the control of the whole process, from the bean to the end product. We select the other raw ingredients, like hazelnuts, almonds, and pistachios, and then we even roast these on our premises.” says Cecilia Tessieri, Founder of AMEDEI.
Six-time winner of the London Academy of Chocolate's prestigious "Golden Bean" award—more than any other chocolate producer—AMEDEI is a favorite of top chefs for its uncommon rich, creamy texture and complex, full-bodied flavor. The packaging alone is a work of art, designed by Tessieri's mother; the warm palette suggests there is something special inside. The retail collection ranges from bars to beautifully assorted pralines that provide small moments of pleasure. The Chef Selection (Food Service) is the absolute top quality for a chef’s creation.
Trying this fine chocolate is a must. Please stop by the De Medici booth #2336 or contact Maria Roemer, De Medici Business Development Manager at mroemer@demedici.com for more information.
