8. Notes on traditionalism, homogeneity of spread and persistence of production rules over time:
\nTaglioli di Castell`Azzara are a poor man\u2019s sweet from the lower-Amiata traditions in the Grosseto province. They were morning tea for the miners, who usually ate them with a glass of wine. <\/p>\n
9. Production:
\nTaglioli, like topi and ciaramito, are made by one pastry shop in Castell\u2019Azzara. In rest of the province, they\u2019re only made for personal consumption. It\u2019s impossible to estimate the quantity in that production is focused in the Christmas period and mainly upon request. Castell\u2019Azzara is experiencing a faze of depopulation, so each year, requests for the product decrease. That said, the tradition is still alive in the home and for personal consumption. The product is exclusively sold direct. In Castell\u2019Azzara there is a group called the “Compagnia teatrale del Topone” that, in certain times of the year, performs a play called “Taglioli, topi e tagliole” throughout the province, during which they hand out taglioni. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":126,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"product-type":[224],"nazione":[],"tipo-prodotto":[],"class_list":["post-16368","product","type-product","status-publish","hentry","category-fresh-pastries-and-bakery-products-biscuits-pastry-and-confectionery","product-type-pat-en"],"acf":{"vt_product_img":"http:\/\/vetrinatoscana.netseven.work\/app\/uploads\/2018\/10\/439_78.JPG","vt_product_logo":"","vt_product_gallery":null,"vt_convenzionale":null,"vt_stagionalita":null,"vt_zona_consegna":null,"vt_modalita_consegna":null,"vt_tempi_consegna":null,"vt_scheda_ex-arsia":null,"logo_consorzio_di_tutela":null,"vt_campo2":"","vt_campo3":"","vt_campo4":"Castell'Azzara, Pitigliano, Sovana, provincia di Grosseto.","subtitle":null},"yoast_head":"\n
