What it is
The Aceto family has farmed sfusato amalfitano lemons on terraced groves above Maiori for five generations. These aren't supermarket lemons — they're enormous, fragrant, thick-skinned beauties that grow nowhere else in the world. You'll walk through the grove under pergolas of lemon trees, learn how the terraces were built centuries ago, and understand why these lemons have IGP protection. Then the tasting: fresh limoncello made the traditional way (just lemons, alcohol, sugar, water — nothing else), lemon marmalade, lemon cake, and delizia al limone. You'll also make your own small batch of limoncello to take home. The grove is uphill from the center — they'll pick you up in Maiori piazza.
