adopt an olive tree & receive fresh italian extra virgin olive oil straight from the grove
Olio Nuovo 2019
Olio Nuovo is the most anticipated oil of the year as it is the first taste of the annual harvest. Each year olive farmers all around Italy gather at their local “frantoio”, the oil mill, with their just picked olives to try their fresh new oil straight out of the press. This is a a seasonal celebration each year as it is the moment when their hard work is realised.
Our Olio Nuovo is extra virgin olive oil in its most natural and raw state – it is as fresh as you can get and is unfiltered meaning the olive sediment from the pressing process isn’t filtered out. This gives it its characteristics cloudy green colour and deep rustic taste. As our miller Corradini describes, it is just like you are eating an olive.
This is why we deliver our Olio Nuovo just a month after the oil is pressed, to ensure you can experience it almost like you are there at the oil press. So enjoy it like the Italians do: lavishly as the seasonal treat it is!
