I came here with a group of touring food and nutrition experts. We were thrilled with the wonderful variety of herbs, the glorious view and the hospitality and food served. I am an avid cook and gardener and had never seen or smelled many varieties of sage and basil. I only wish we could have brought back those herbs for... More

Discover more about basil, sage, thyme was a different experience. We think we know about aromatic plants but we don't really. The place is very nice, is "real", not polished up for turists, they work there, they don't show. The food is a dream of flavours. I'll never forget that experience which blended into the knowledge of histofical sites of... More

I heard about this place in Sicily from a friend who had been there and it was a wonderful experience and enlarged my horizons. Every time I cook after this visit I became more daring using the herbs and spices in my cooking. The enthusiasim and knowledge of the owner was deep. The frame of where this farm was located...

We went to the farm on a Friday morning and we enjoyed the fully sensorial experience while our children entertained themselves with the many attractions of the farm. It was a fantastic experience that we will definitevely replicate and possibly couple with a tasting that Mr Russino organises from time to time. We are also very keen to try his... More

We visited to show my wife's parents a different part of Sicily, and to show them the different types of herbs available outside of the states. First off, Enrico was great with planning the visit and showing us around his farm, for those of you who speak little Italian, he is fluent in English. He is very passionate and knowledgeable...

Gli Aromi is a herb garden, magnificently situated where the gentle hillside slopes down to the sea, just south of Scicli. Montalbano territory! The ideal situation for a garden, and the ideal climate! You are surrounded by sweet-scented herbs, basil, parsley, coriander, thyme, hyssop, sage, lavender, bay laurel, all in many varieties. Enrico shows you around with pride, describing all... More

So glad we read about Gli Aromi on tripadvisor! We decided to drop by and have a look, and found they are well sign posted and easy to find. (the opening hours are in their web site) We were received by Enrico's fiancee Rita, who, when I expressed an interest in the luffa's (loofah's) they also grow, immediately offered me... More

Sicily has its wonders, and this is no mystery. But what "gli Aromi" can give you is something you won't find anywhere else in the island, and to the best of my knowledge, in the world. That family run business combines great hospitality with a unique dedication to the art of cultivating aromatic herbs and plants. You will be taken... More

Gliaroma is unique for so many reasons: the care lavished on the herbs, their extraordinary variety (dozens of varieties of thyme etc.), the quality of attention devoted to visitors by the family members (it is a family business), and the years of hard work required to build an empire of scents and tastes.
