The Commission has approved the addition of the following product to its list of geographical indications:
'Τερτζιελλούθκια / Tertziellouthkia' from Cyprus in the register of Protected Geographical Indications (PGI). ‘Τερτζιελλούθκια / Tertziellouthkia' are a type of pasta made by mixing durum wheat flour with water and another type of flour such as country or wholemeal flour, with semolina, water and salt. The product's name comes from its shape, which resembles a little ring. Its specific characteristics, such as its size and texture, are a result of the producers' know-how and expertise, and built its reputation over the years.
This new denomination will be added to the list of 3,612 agricultural products already protected. The list of all protected geographical indications can be found in the eAmbrosia database. More information is available online at Quality Schemes and on our GIView portal.
