OUR FARM... The company is situated in the picturesque hilly landscape around Pisa, where the privileged climatic conditions have enabled us to produce our gold, the extra-virgin Olive Oil, for the past one hundred years. Our olives are meticulously selected and manually collected from our 5000 Olive trees. We follow a special production cycle called "a freddo" ("cold cycle"), thanks to which we received prestigious Italian and European awards. This special production cycle is the key to having a superb and excellent product with a distinct color, smell and a low acidity level. Our olive oil is a natural product that doesn't receive any chemical treatment; only this approach allows us to keep an unparalleled quality level. We hope that you would like to try personally our extra-virgin olive oil; we will be happy to welcome you, particularly in November and December, when we press the olives so you will have the chance to try the oil just ready out from the presser.
