Further details on Extra Virgin Olive Oil:

This Italian extra virgin olive oil, ICEA certified, is primarily made from Leccino olives (80%), combined with Gentile di Chieti (15%) and other selected varieties (5%). The olives are harvested between October and December and processed within 48 hours using continuous cold mechanical extraction to best preserve their quality and organoleptic characteristics. The result is an oil with a straw-yellow color and green hues, featuring a light fruitiness accompanied by delicate bitter notes and herbaceous hints. Stored in stainless steel tanks under nitrogen and strictly controlled during every processing stage, it is available in 25, 50, and 75 cl glass bottles and 500 ml tins.
