The Oil

About 300 olive trees, most of them over 100 years old, on the hill in front of Assisi, are the source of a precious oil.
Raising olive trees is a laborious task. We continue our ancestors’ tradition : these trees were pillars of the agricultural society and our family depended on it for their livelihood.
Now we are very proud of our orchard and develop our olive oil with passion. We do not aim at quantity but at quality.
We refused to modernize the process of harvesting olives so this ritual is completely by hand as it was at our ancestors’ times . Nets are placed on the grounds, then, by using a comb or by hand, the olives are allowed to drop into the net. Olives are picked when they are not completely black and ripe and crushed the day after harvest to avoid fermentation.The oil is extracted by cold press: this is a guarantee for quality.
Our oil is very intense, it reminds the fresh grass and olives with a bitter and spicy after-taste and hints of artichoke and almond.
It is sold in 3 deciliter bottles and in 5 liter metal cans. We ship everywhere, both in Italy and abroad.
