There is only one way to keep the bud on the rice grain: don’t take it away! Carnaroli rice with the bud is subjected to a smooth processing that leaves the grains roughest, preserve the proteins, the vitamins, the mineral salts and the enzymes that are in the external layer of the grain and most of all in the bud, and allowing for the rice to be capable of absorbing liquids after cooking, without flaking.
If you try it simply boiled, you will see the bud grow and you will feel the perfumes of our Carnaroli. If you use it to make a risotto, you will appreciate the extraordinary absorbing capacity without dividing the liquids after the cooking, without exfoliating, even for several minutes before serving.

A long experience in rice cultivation matured over five generations, making of a job a real culture asking for continuous improvement. Perinotti & Conte - Owners
Back five generations the Perinotti Family cultivates rice in the Grange Vercellesi area in Piedmont. A life dedicated to rediscover varieties of native rice: an ambitious choice in an historic period in which standardization rules.
Gli Aironi brand's name means herons, birds that stand out also in the company logo, formerly in way of extinction and now returned in great numbers in the Grange, confirming the company's attention to environmental sustainability. An other proof is the work done to hydraulic works that has allowed to reduce to the minimum the usage of chemical products.
