Apulian Olive Oil: Why Choose It?
It's a question rarely asked because "Made in Puglia" has become synonymous with proven excellence. Expanses of olive groves, vineyards, and almond trees that stretch across the plains to the shores of the Adriatic Sea—this is "Olive Oil Paradise." For the people of Puglia, every drop is precious and contains a world of inimitable flavors. A slice of bread is all it takes to savor the intense aroma of extra virgin olive oil, nothing more! This is the magic that only a special product can create, transforming the simplicity of a dish into a moment of true flavor.
We've already answered the question in these few lines, but if we wanted to focus on the quality of the product, then it's only right to tell you a little more.
The Apulian olive trees
The olive tree is a "sacred plant" that finds its highest expression in the landscapes of the Murge. There are centuries-old olive trees, true monuments of nature to be protected and preserved because they represent the balance of these places, where dry stone walls run along olive groves, interspersed with fields, farmhouses, and typical Mediterranean vegetation. Puglia boasts over 60 million olive trees, 15 million of which are over 100 years old. The region is divided into nine regions, each with its own microclimate, average number of olive trees per hectare, productivity, and cultivar variety.
Authenticity of extra virgin olive oil
Puglia, along with Calabria and Sicily, produces approximately 85% of Italy's total olive oil production. Various associations guarantee the authenticity of Puglian oil: from the olive grove to the mill to the bottling, it must be produced within the region's borders. One of our company's primary goals is to preserve Puglia's tradition, enabling Italian and international consumers to identify and recognize the product's characteristics, with guaranteed provenance and quality.
We want to be ambassadors of taste and quality not only in Italy but also beyond.
Puglia's yellow gold is a unique sensory experience, and our oil is proof of this. Try it and believe it.
