The choice of the precise moment for harvesting is essential: the olives must be ripe but not excessively so, to ensure the right combination of flavors and aromas. Once handpicked, the olives are carefully selected, eliminating any impurities, and then promptly transported to the mill.
Washing
At the mill, the olives undergo a washing process with running water, which frees them from surface impurities. This practice, executed with attention and precision, helps maintain the natural flavors of the olives unchanged, ensuring that the final result is an oil with an authentic and fresh aromatic profile.
Milling
The milling of olives at the mill represents the heart of the production process of extra virgin olive oil. Once carefully harvested and washed, the olives reach the mill to be transformed into an oil that preserves all its organoleptic properties.
Extraction
The oil extraction process is carried out through cold pressing. In this process, the olive paste is placed under a hydraulic press, which gradually and naturally exerts pressure. Cold pressing is fundamental to preserve the quality of the oil, thus maintaining its distinctive aromatic profile intact.
Storage
Our company adopts advanced storage methods that allow enjoying a superior quality product, cared for in every detail from the moment of preservation. Extra virgin olive oil is stored in stainless steel tanks, chracterized by a hermetic closure and a device at the bottom that facilitates the removal of any sediments and deposits. These tanks preserve the purity of the oil and the fragrance of the product.
Bottling
The bottling process is carried out in a controlled environment. Bottles are filled with oil, with maximum attention to cleanliness to avoid contamination. Labels provide detailed information about the origin of the olives, the production method, and the organoleptic characteristics of the oil. Airtight caps and seals ensure that the oil remains protected from oxygen, thus preserving its freshness.
