The origins of Pontecorvo Pepper date back to the Pontecorvo principality.
An 1830 brochure shows the production of Pontecorvo Pepper among the vegetable crops.
In May of 1889, the birth of the Agricultural Consortium has favoured the cultivation of the pepper that had become one of the main resources of the area.
The characteristics that make it unique are the taste and digestibility due to a thin skin.
Esperia is part of the cultivation area of Pontecorvo Pepper.
