Selected for America
Altieri Italian Imports
Exceptional Italian food sourced directly from distinguished family estates, artisan producers and regional specialists throughout Italy.
Italy's Finest, Brought to Your Table
Altieri Italian Imports was founded on a single conviction: that the most extraordinary Italian foods are made by people who have dedicated their lives to a single craft, on a single piece of land, in a single region of Italy.
We travel Italy searching for products defined by original craft, authentic provenance, and true elegance — discovering small family producers, single-estate farms, artisan food makers, and regional specialists whose work deserves a place on the finest American tables.
Every product in our collection is chosen not by category or price, but by the story behind it. We import only what we would serve at our own table.
Single Estate Origins
Every product traces directly to one farm, one grove, one cellar. We never blend sources or obscure origins. You know exactly where your food was made and by whom.
Family Producers Only
We work exclusively with family-owned operations — estates and workshops where the same hands that tend the land also craft the final product. No industrial intermediaries.
Authentic Regional Craft
Traditional methods, regional recipes, and generational knowledge. The balsamic aged in the same attic for decades. The pasta bronze-die cut as it has been for a century.
Curated for Discerning Tables
Our collection is intentionally small. We add a new producer only when we find something truly exceptional — something that cannot be replicated anywhere else in the world.

Frantoio AgroCalabria
Single-Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Five generations of the Brescia family have tended the same ancient olive groves in the South Calabria area. Their Biologic oil is cold-pressed within hours of harvest — a practice that defines their extraordinary quality.
Acetaia Giusti
Traditional Balsamic Vinegar
Founded in 1605, Acetaia Giusti is the world's oldest balsamic producer. Their vinegars age in a sequence of barrels — mulberry, cherry, oak, chestnut, juniper — in the same attic where they have always aged.
Tartufi From Molise-Campania

The family has foraged the forests of different regions for decades.Hidden beneath the forests of Italy, each truffle is discovered at the perfect moment of maturity. Guided by generations of family tradition, they are harvested by hand and carefully prepared within 24 hours—preserving an unmistakable aroma, intensity, and character that can only come from the earth itself.
From the groves of Puglia to the cellars of Modena — we bring Italy's most extraordinary flavors to America.
