Loison Pera Biscotto – Pear-Shaped Butter Biscuits

Tasting Notes of the Curator

The Pera Biscotto enchants with its simplicity and refinement. Its buttery crumble gives way to gentle notes of ripe pear — juicy, floral, and subtly honeyed — perfectly balanced by the aromatic depth of Madagascar’s Mananara vanilla. The use of Williams pears infuses the dough with delicate fruitiness, while the vanilla lends warmth and elegance, intertwining in a fragrance that evokes orchards in early autumn. Each biscuit is shaped like a tiny pear, a playful yet refined nod to its inspiration. The texture is crisp at first bite, then melts softly on the tongue, releasing a bouquet of butter, fruit, and spice. Light, aromatic, and irresistible, it’s a biscuit that transforms simplicity into poetry.

A Tribute to Nature’s Elegance

The Pera Biscotto is an expression of Loison’s devotion to craftsmanship and fine ingredients. Dario Loison transforms the humble pear into a work of art — using Williams pears prized for their fragrance and texture, paired with Madagascar’s Mananara vanilla, a Slow Food Presidium ingredient renowned for its complex aroma and ethical cultivation. Each biscuit is handmade in Vicenza, carrying both playfulness and sophistication in its pear-shaped form. Beautifully boxed, it embodies the Loison philosophy: to preserve tradition while celebrating the sensory poetry of nature.
