CALABRIA
PART II
TENUTA SCRISELLI
@tenutascriselli

This is where our olive oil begins.
Long before the harvest. Long before the bottle.

In the soil. In the Calabrian sun. In the quiet care given to every tree.

Here, the olives are grown following organic farming principles. Every tree is cared for patiently, gently, with love.

In my espresso cup, there is olive oil instead of coffee. A reason to go deeper into one of the Mediterranean’s most valuable products - its freshness, polyphenols, oleic acid, and why true quality begins here, in the grove.

And almost without noticing, you begin to live at its rhythm. Everything urgent becomes distant. What worried you no longer feels quite so important.

There is only the olive grove, fruit picked straight from the trees, long lunches and the endless sound of a Calabrian summer.

Simple days that quietly put everything back in its place.

—

Здесь начинается наше оливковое масло.
Задолго до урожая. Задолго до бутылки.

В земле. В калабрийском солнце. В тихой заботе о каждом дереве.

Здесь оливы выращивают по принципам органического земледелия. О каждом дереве заботятся терпеливо, бережно, с любовью.

В моей чашке для эспрессо вместо кофе - оливковое масло. И повод глубже разобраться в одном из самых ценных продуктов Средиземноморья: в его свежести, полифенолах, олеиновой кислоте и в том, почему настоящее качество начинается ещё здесь, в роще.

И почти незаметно начинаешь жить в ритме этого места. Всё срочное отдаляется. А то, что тревожило, уже не кажется таким важным.

Остаются оливковая роща, фрукты прямо с деревьев, долгие обеды и непрерывный звук калабрийского лета.

Простые дни, которые тихо возвращают всё на свои места.

#calabrialife

PIENNOLO

Slowly and naturally dried under the Calabrian sun.

No shortcuts - only sun, air and time. Moisture leaves; sweetness, acidity and natural umami become more intense.

Soon, this concentrated taste of summer will become part of the bread ceremony at CAAA @caaa_lucerne

PIENNOLO

Медленно и естественно сушатся под калабрийским солнцем.

Без ускорения процесса - только солнце, воздух и время. Влага уходит, а сладость, кислотность и естественный умами становятся яр taken in Calabria, Italy by @eleklim

CALABRIA
PART I

What does Calabria mean to me?

A little life of its own.
With its own rhythm.

Pietro’s parents’ home.
His father’s native land.

The endless sound of crickets through the olive groves.
Olive oil from Carolea olives.
Citrus. My beloved bergamot.
Life on pause from one to five.
A two-euro panino, made al momento.
The crystal-clear Ionian Sea.
Breakfast straight from the tree.

Everything is simple here.
Nothing feels ordinary.

—

Что для меня Калабрия?

Для меня - маленькая другая жизнь.
Со своим ритмом.

Дом родителей Пьетро.
Родная земля его отца.

Бесконечный стрекот кузнечиков в оливковых рощах.
Масло из оливок Carolea.
Цитрусы. Мой любимый бергамот.
Жизнь на паузе с часу до пяти.
Panino за два евро, приготовленный al momento.
Кристально чистое Ионическое море.
Завтрак прямо с дерева.

Здесь всё просто.
И ничего не кажется обычным.

We love our Behind the Key’s by CAAA format @behindthekeys_by_caaa —
for many reasons.
For uniqueness.
For the rare concentration of professionals and true stars of their fields.
For an atmosphere that feels like a celebration stretching over several days.
And most of all —
because during these evenings, we allow ourselves to step away from our usual culinary direction
and create an entirely new sensory language.
Unexpected. Unpredictable. Unattached to expectations.
A format with no rules imposed from the outside.
Behind the Key’s by CAAA.
Series 03 highlights:
Star guest — @blvcksvm
Artist in residence — @mr.goldbrush
Family crew — @officialcatalano @eleklim @stefaniacatofficial
Moments captured by the lens of @lahunchoball
(Video edit by a separate creator)
Podcast coming soon —
with The Best Chef Awards: @foodrebelx @joannaphd
and BLVCK SVM.

Where should we allow ourselves to break the rules next?

Every piece of music carries its own interpretation.
Its own arrangement.
And every orchestra finds its own voice.

For Series Three — Behind the Key’s by CAAA, we translated BLVCK SVM’s Michelinman into flavor, movement, and emotions.

A kitchen in motion.
A bar in rhythm.
A room listening.

This is where sound becomes taste.
Where moments turn into memory.

It all started with a simple conversation.
— Hi Ben, how are you? You intrigued us — tell us more.
— Hi Chef. I created an album called Michelinman — every track is built around food, Michelin, and high gastronomy.
— Interesting. We love the idea. We love your rhythm. When?
— I’m open for next year.
— Perfect. Second week of January.
— Deal.
— Deal. I’ll send the details.
— We’re in.
And just like that — it began!

This is a small photo report from the final series of Episode One — Behind the Key’s by CAAA.
With BLVCK SVM @blvcksvm and his Michelinman album,
MR Goldbrush @mr.goldbrush as Artist in Residence,
and special podcast guests Cristian Gadau & Joanna Slusarczyk @foodrebelx @joannaphd , founders of The Best Chef Awards @thebestchefawards
Everything captured by Hunter @lahunchoball — thank you for freezing these moments so beautifully!

The story will unfold across many posts.
So much inspiration.
So many meaningful conversations.
And so much gratitude for everyone who shared this journey with us.
How incredible it all was. 🤍✨
