Basil is the main ingredient of "Pesto alla Genovese". basil is also at the same time the symbol of the Liguria region and grows on the slopes above the sea.
The basil is, however, mainly grown around Genoa but also in the entire region of Liguria.
The quality of basil depends on the soil, the cultivation area and climate. Liguria has a particularly favorable and temperate climate for the cultivation of a delicate basil. The sea breeze makes also a contribution.
