For four years, the artisan pasta factory in Strada in Chianti has been a partner and official supplier to the Yamaha team’s hospitality.
Excerpt from the article:
“The Pastificio Artigiano Fabbri of Strada in Chianti has been a partner and official supplier to the Yamaha and LCR MotoGP teams' hospitality for four years, which means that champions Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo, and Cal Crutchlow, along with their staff, enjoy this Chianti excellence while traveling around the world for MotoGP races.
It is a great satisfaction for the historic pasta factory, whose origins date back to 1893.
'We are extremely happy when, year after year, Yamaha and LCR ask us to renew this partnership due to the high quality of our products. Being a hospitality partner in MotoGP for these teams,' explains Marco Fabbri, who belongs to the fifth generation of the pasta factory, 'is a great honor for us.'
'Our production,' Marco continues, 'is characterized by a deep knowledge of the product, combined with old machinery passed down together with the pasta factory.'
'The success of our pasta is due to a secret passed down through generations: the natural drying process with the "Fabbri Method," a natural drying process where temperatures never exceed 38°C at any stage of production. This results in drying times ranging from 3 to 6 days. This method allows us to maintain gluten and starches in their natural state, which facilitates digestibility. This characteristic has been key in establishing many collaborations with athletes and nutritionists. The experience accumulated over five generations has made Pastificio Fabbri an outstanding player in the pasta-making world. We are also capable of working with ancient grains that are almost extinct; to do so, we collaborate with small producers and millers to create products suitable for those who are gluten intolerant.”
