COLLECTION The search for absolute quality begins in the field, selecting the best olives grown with care and skill to make a Sicilian extra virgin olive oil of excellence! The harvest, rigorously by hand, begins at the end of September with the most precocious cultivars so that the olives are still green and then stored in large ventilated baskets to maintain the organoleptic properties of the olive itself. MOLITURE The olives are pressed within 12 hours of harvest, using the best technology currently available for milling. It operates with a Pieralisi plant in continuous cycle, ensuring hygienically controlled production cycles. The entire process is in the absence of oxygen, so the oil is not in contact with the air until the bottle is opened.
BOTTLING The olive oil is stored in stainless steel tanks, protected light and air, in a controlled environment at a constant temperature of 15/17°C. Before each stage of packaging, each product is analysed in order to offer an extra virgin olive oil of certified quality.
