If you have ever visited central Italy it's impossibile that you haven't come across a a shop or food truck selling a magnificent sandwich with Porchetta. It is difficult to establish precisely the year of the born of this product, but it was surely invented before the Romans. This recipe has reached its highest expression in a small village in the province of Rome called Ariccia, that nowadays, thanks to this gastronomic excellence, has an important place in the most famous culinary guides and books. What mainly characterizes the Porchetta di Ariccia IGP is the awsome crunchiness of the bacon rind, obtained thanks to a precise cooking. The meats used come exclusively from porks born, bred and butchered in Italy and are perfectly balanced in a 70-30% proportion between the thin and the fat parts. It is season using only products cultivated in Italy as rosemary, garlic, fennel seeds, finally a lot of black pepper and good sea salt. All the Ariccia porchetta producers would agree that the best way to appreciate this product is a simple sandwich, in this case "less is more". So we're giving you our personal recipe: sandwich with Porchetta di Ariccia IGP, argula and home made mayonnaise. Firstly toast 2 slices of a good Stonebaked organic Pugliese type bread - Forno Astori. Meanwhile in a mixer put two eggs and turn on the mixer adding the seeds oil little by little. When the mayonnaise will be beaten add some Sicilian lemons Verdelli juice and season with some salt (and a touch of mustard too if you like it). Put the mayonnaise on the lower slice of bread, then the arugula and finally abundant porchetta. With this sandwich we recommend to drink a decise character beer like OI Beer.

During the last years the artisanal beer producers have been multiplying in all the peninsula, because the industrial beer, subject to filtering and pasteurization, don't preserve all the beer natural aromas and tastes. Italy is a nation in which water quality is very high, so, starting from the prerequisite that beer is 90% made by water, Italian beer starts form a great base. Historically the Italian territory hasn't been dedicated to production of beer, ad it has always been focused on the wine production. Cultivations as the barley, hops and yeasts production have never been developed, as a consequence almost all the producers import the raw materials from foreign countries. The OI project has the aim to realize a 100% Italian and artisanal beer. The beginning was very difficult, the supplier insisted that it would be impossible to cultivate an high quality barley but especially hops in Italy. But ,after 3 years of experiments and territory analysis, 3 hops and a barley (Spring Barley Prestige Variety) perfect for the production of an agricultural beer have been selected. The beer has been called OI because this acronym is the dialect word to indicate the Oglio river, in whose park the raw materials which give birth to this beer are cultivated; moreover Oi stands for Italian Barley (Orzo Italiano) and Italian Origin (Origine Italiana). The result is an harmonious, genuine and high quality beer. In order to make it as pure as possible and exalt its aromas it is nor filtered or pasteurized, its amber color that mends of the sunset will amaze your sight; it has a fragrant taste of toasted malt; It has a fresh and elegant taste, with a perfectly balanced bitter shade. OI Beer: inspired by our traditions, produced using advanced technologies, dedicated to the lovers of the Italian "buon gusto".

Oi Beer, as the river Oglio was called in the local dialect, in its agricultural park the barley fields are cultivated passionately obtaining this unique beer: harmonious, natural and high quality. Agricultural Italian Beer
