Nature
The relationship between the quality of an extra virgin oil and that of the environment in which it is produced is a close one. That’s why we adopt all the techniques of organic farming:

  • we protect the trees with a barrier of hedges, providing an ideal environment for the insects that help to combat the enemies of the tree and its fruit
  • we work the soil at the surface and enrich it only with organic products
  • we prune the trees lightly, for better exposure to the sun and to give air to the foliage
  • we monitor our olives closely from blossoming to maturation, to assist every vegetative need
  • we hand-pick in order not to damage the fruit
  • we limit the time between picking and pressing to a matter of hours to keep our olives intact
  • we wash the olives in clean, fresh water and cold-press them
  • we protect our extra virgin oil from oxygen and light in order to keep its delicate food properties unchanged until the product reaches the consumer’s table.
