More than 30,000 visitors for one of the most important Italian hunting events that was held in Bastia Umbra from May 11 to 13
lifestyle areas and shows created an immersive event for both hunters and shooting enthusiasts
featuring an innovative internal barrel profile and redesigned barrel-choke assembly
ensures that the shot pellet fired from guns equipped with the A.I
system is always faster than conventional barrel-choke combinations
also leading to a longer range and greater penetration
Baschieri & Pellagri brought to the event its Mygra Beccaccia Bismuth cartridge
The famous shell for woodcock hunting is in fact now available in a version loaded with bismuth shot so it can also be used in areas where lead is banned
While years ago the fragility of bismuth caused some concern
today this alloy – revised in hardness and smoothness – is capable of guaranteeing effective and safe kills
along with fast and precise lacing for a perfect fit
the Futura NXT boots are ideal in wet environments where they are an excellent substitute for rubber boots
Also at Caccia Village, F.A.I.R. Classic EL
the new over-and-under available in Standard and Combinato versions and in all major gauges from 12 to .410 bore with scaled receivers
all fitted with a set of internal and interchangeable chokes
The Classic EL over-and-under has a pistol grip stock
while the Combinato version comes with an English-style stock
The Droptine is available in two versions: with a wooden stock and classic metal sights
or with a technopolymer stock and Picatinny optics rail
it's already time to look forward to Caccia Village 2025

This was the year of an incredible Miles Davis
His concert at the Frontone was one of the most moving events of his later years
and he did so brilliantly: when he moved into blues territory with his pared-down notes
or when he transformed Time After Time into an emotional musical cavalcade far removed from the poppy production by Cindy Lauper
Another jazz veteran made his appearance at the Frontone: Stan Getz heading a quartet with Kenny Barron on piano
Having had a cold reception on his appearance at the outdoor
politically-committed version of the Festival
he now turned in a super performance to win over the public
The new acts included the highly dexterous guitarist
first disappointing then suddenly a great success
and Charles Mingus’ music lived on in the performance by one of the many groups set up by his former band members

Telecom Italia (TIM) is undertaking an innovative cabling project in Bastia Umbra through its infrastructure operator FiberCop to bring Giga services to the city
it has already started in many locations and will involve 5,400 real estate units
Bastia Umbra will be equipped with an even better fibre network than the one already available
which employs FTTCab technology to offer internet download speeds of up to 200 Mbps
Bastia Umbra is part of an ambitious plan by TIM to create an entire fibre network throughout the whole of Italy
Broadband TV News notes that last month FiberCop signed a new loan facility agreement for €1.5 billion
The transaction will allow it to further strengthen its capital structure

The tree-covered rolling hills of central Italy’s Umbria region provide the backdrop for the European subsidiary of U.S.-headquartered flavor house TTI
in the plain at the foot of the hill of Assisi
a charming medieval town halfway between Florence and Rome
the company has set up a state-of-the-art production facility and warehouse
Establishing the new flavor factory has been a long journey
who leads the project and is the sister of TTI CEO George Cassels-Smith
The family business specializes in flavors with aroma chemicals
many of which have complex profiles to generate unique taste experiences
It develops high-quality flavors for shisha
“We tried to put a warehouse in Dubai many years ago
but due to some high-rise fires in the city
the government wouldn’t allow chemical storage in free trade zones any longer
Trump and Erdogan were on difficult terms,” says Davis
“Just as we were about to sign a contract for an existing factory
Erdogan wouldn’t allow Americans into Turkiye.”
“We opted for Italy because the tobacco industry has always had a strong presence here
and [we opted] for Assisi because there are other tobacco entities right here,” Davis said
Universal’s affiliate Deltafina subsidiary
maybe Milan would have made more sense because it’s a center of chemical manufacturing
but George wanted to be close to the tobacco industry.”
What was supposed to start with a warehouse quickly evolved into a full manufacturing facility
Built during the Covid pandemic and opened about a year ago
the 6,000 square-meter facility currently manufactures about 100 flavors for tobacco products using 700 different raw materials
New flavors and raw materials are being added weekly
The facility that produces such a multitude of flavors is surprisingly sparse: A corner of the spacious shop floor hosts two huge
They are complemented by two 200-liter tanks to mix smaller volumes
On the wall opposite that corner is the warehousing space
Quality control is rigorous: All incoming raw materials must pass an internal check before being used to manufacture flavors
The finished flavors undergo a similarly strict quality assessment procedure before delivery to the customer
Traceability of both raw material and finished product is a basic procedure for TTI
Flavors are validated at both the Italian facility and TTI’s U.S
The Italian factory features a “plug and play” concept throughout the production department and the laboratory
It also includes space to construct a clean room for the manufacture of e-liquids
TTI intends for the Italian factory to eventually produce exactly the same portfolio as its U.S
where the company creates novel aromas in a newly developed R&D center
process abroad is to lower transport cost and facilitate the logistics process
Many of TTI’s clients are based in Europe and the Middle East whereas many suppliers of raw materials are in Europe
requires a lot of shipping across the Atlantic
“When we started to produce flavors for these markets in the U.S.
transport was already expensive and took a long time,” Davis says
“Now with the changed situation due to the Covid pandemic and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
it is much more expensive and takes even longer
It’s very burdensome to our customers to be paying all of that and waiting the times they have to today
We just want to make it easier for them and more cost-effective.” TTI’s production for Europe and the Middle East
which is currently carried out at both the U.S
is planned to be eventually shifted largely to Assisi
doesn’t always know in which end products their flavors are used
When the company is dealing with customers who are looking for a specific flavor profile
TTI conducts panel testing to find that profile
“Customers pretty much tell you what they want,” says David
“Different customers have different requirements.”
The appropriate flavor profile also depends on the region and cultures in which the end product will be consumed
“Shisha in the Middle East is more traditional flavors
but they’re growing into what we call fusion flavors,” says Davis
Minty flavors are sought after but restricted in an increasing number of markets.”
Davis observes increasing demand for TTI products in Europe from the growing modern oral nicotine category
we are growing a lot in the Middle East and Africa
We focus on Asia; we have a successful Chinese sales office
but we’re presently putting more work into south [Asia] and Southeast Asia.”
The Cassels-Smith family has a long history in the tobacco industry
It started more than 150 years ago with exports of U.S
tobacco leaf under the name Gieski and Neiman
Davis’ father left the company to set up the flavor house TTI
Unlike many competitors who make aromas for other industries
TTI has always dedicated its service exclusively to the tobacco industry
the company expanded with the creation of eLiquiTech
a high-purity (typically 99.9 percent) synthetic nicotine (S-nicotine) that is neither obtained from tobacco nor derived from a synthetic racemic mixture
At the time when the Assisi site was built
TTI ventured into cannabinoids by establishing Emerald Green Technology
This subsidiary creates fresh terpene blends
tinctures and edibles as well as casings and distinctive flavors for hemp
The company plans to transfer its expertise to TTI Assisi to cater to the cannabis market that is expected to develop in Europe
recently announced that it would legalize cannabis during the current legislative period
and then they go beyond Europe,” says Davis
“We are seeing growth of interest in cannabis here
so I think the EU will be going down the same road as the U.S.”
Davis is excited about the outlook for the tobacco industry
but we are working hard to find other avenues within the industry
such as working with synthetic nicotine to develop safer products
There are opportunities out there where there’s growth in the industry—it is just evolving.”
