Imposing and unmistakable,
Tavolara rises from the sea off the north-eastern coast of Sardinia like a great granite mountain. Its silhouette, recognizable from afar, is one of the Island’s most evocative landscapes: wild nature, crystal-clear sea, and a history that makes this place unique. It is from this strong and spectacular presence that
Tavolara Island takes its name, one of the richest baskets in the S’Isula collection.
The gift set comes in a
large rectangular wicker basket measuring 60×42×15 cm, chosen to showcase a particularly generous selection of Sardinian specialties. The wicker, with its natural and handcrafted appearance, gives the packaging a warm and traditional elegance and makes the basket itself part of the gift, reusable even after the holidays.
The journey begins with the star of Christmas: the
500 g artisanal panettone from La Forneria di Pula, presented in its box. A holiday classic that fits harmoniously into a selection built around the flavors of Sardinia.
The savory selection opens with the
approx. 200 g Sardinian salami from Salumificio Monte Linas in Villacidro, vacuum-packed. A product with a bold character, ideal for a charcuterie board, an aperitif, or a shared appetizer.
Alongside the salami, we find the
180 g “Funghi” vegetable specialties in oil by Ayo’ of Villacidro, perfect for enriching an appetizer or accompanying cured meats. The
180 g pitted olives in brine from Copar Dolianova complete the aperitif journey with a simple and traditional Mediterranean note.
One of the symbols of Sardinian gastronomy couldn’t be missing: the
250 g Guttiau carasau bread with oil, salt, and chili pepper from Masserie Sarde in Chiaramonti. Crunchy, flavorful, and slightly spicy, it is ideal for serving with cured meats, olives, and oil-preserved specialties.
Completing the gastronomic section is the
500 g traditional Eliche pasta from Pastificio Brundu in Torralba, a versatile specialty that brings the taste of Sardinian tradition directly to the table and transforms the gift into an experience to be lived and shared.
The sweet selection is particularly rich and varied. The
120 g S’Isula myrtle candies bring the intense scent of one of Sardinia’s most representative aromas to the basket. The
150 g boxed La Suissa chocolates, Christmas edition, add an elegant and festive note.
These are joined by the
200 g ladyfinger curls by Franca Curreli of Gavoi, a specialty of the Sardinian confectionery tradition perfect for enjoying with coffee, accompanied by a cream, or simply savored during the holidays.
Nougat is not missing, with three small
chocolate-covered nougats from Torronificio Tore in Tonara, 12 g each:
hazelnut and honey, walnut and honey, almond and honey. Three different combinations that tell the confectionery tradition of Tonara and make the selection of small tastings even richer.
To complete the basket comes the
75 cl Pinot Chardonnay Brut sparkling wine from Cantina Mancini in Olbia, ideal for accompanying an aperitif, toasting during the holidays, or opening a special lunch. A bottle that gives the package a touch of elegance and celebration.
As a decorative and functional element, the gift finally includes a
50×110 cm blue S’Isula table runner with printed Lapwings. A complement that can be used during Christmas lunch and on special occasions, bringing one of the most recognizable motifs of Sardinian decorative identity to the table.
