Our Company

Premium Italian Rice from Isola della Scala Since 1986

Riso Melotti is a family business based in Isola della Scala, in the province of Verona, one of Italy's most renowned rice-growing regions. Since 1986, our family has been cultivating, milling and selling 100% Italian rice, preserving a tradition that has been passed down through generations.

We specialize in Italy's finest rice varieties, including the prestigious Vialone Nano Rice, the historic rice of Isola della Scala, and the celebrated Carnaroli Rice, both appreciated by chefs and food lovers worldwide for their exceptional quality and cooking performance.

Our rice is cultivated on the fertile plains surrounding Verona, where crystal-clear spring-fed waters and ideal soil conditions create the perfect environment for producing premium Italian rice. Isola della Scala has been the heart of Italian rice cultivation for centuries and is internationally known for its annual Fiera del Riso (Rice Fair), the largest event in Italy dedicated to rice.

Unlike large industrial producers, we are an independent family-run rice mill. Every stage of the production process, from cultivation to milling and packaging, is managed directly by our family. We carefully process every single grain using traditional artisanal methods to preserve its natural flavour, texture and nutritional value.

Buying from Riso Melotti means purchasing directly from the producer. Our products are available through our online shop and at our farm shop in Isola della Scala, offering authentic Italian rice, rice specialties and gourmet products at the best value.

Experience the authentic taste of Italian rice from Isola della Scala, grown with passion by our family for over 40 years.
