This is a true "Gran Cru," an exceptional extra virgin olive oil from a single family-owned estate in Puglia, Italy. The Galantino family has been producing fine oil since 1926. For this exclusive product, olives are hand-picked from their "La Fenice - Coppa Malva" grove and pressed within six hours using traditional granite millstones. Every stage, from harvest to the final tasting, is personally overseen by Dr. Galantino to ensure the highest standard of quality.
This oil has a beautiful golden-yellow colour with hints of olive green. Its aroma is fresh and herbaceous, with notes of almond and tomato leaf. The flavour is delicately fruity with a very slight peppery, spicy finish, a sign of a high-quality, fresh oil. It is best used on dishes where its character can be appreciated, such as for dressing salads, or drizzling over baked fish, seafood, and other delicate plates.
