Sicilian Extra Virgin Olive Oil: A Gold Standard in Quality
Sicilian extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is celebrated worldwide for its exceptional quality, rich flavour, and centuries-old production methods. The island's unique climate—sun-drenched hills, coastal breezes, and volcanic soil—provides the ideal conditions for cultivating olives, particularly indigenous varieties like Nocellara del Belice, Biancolilla, and Cerasuola.
The quality of Sicilian olive oil begins with meticulous harvesting. Olives are picked by hand at their optimal ripeness, ensuring minimal bruising and preserving the oil's integrity. Once harvested, the olives are cold-pressed within hours, using traditional methods that retain their natural antioxidants, vitamins, and distinct flavours.
Meet Our Producer: Max
Max, an olive oil producer nestled in the mountains of Sicily, is a master of his craft. His family owns an impressive 300,000 olive trees, spread across the rugged landscape, and they are always seeking to expand while maintaining an unwavering focus on quality. Together, we've worked to create the perfect blend of extra virgin olive oil, using three prized Sicilian varieties: Nocellara del Belice, Tonda Iblea, and Cerasuola.
Max's frantoio (olive mill) is more than just a place of production—it's treated like a temple, kept meticulously clean and sacred, reflecting his deep respect for the olive-making tradition.
Sicilian EVOO is known for its complex and robust flavour profile. It often has a vibrant green colour with notes of fresh herbs, green tomatoes, artichokes, and a slight peppery finish. This balance of fruity and spicy makes it versatile for everything from drizzling on salads and vegetables to enhancing grilled meats and seafood.
Rich in healthy fats, particularly monounsaturated fatty acids, and loaded with antioxidants, Sicilian extra virgin olive oil is not just a culinary delight but also a key component of the Mediterranean diet, renowned for its health benefits.
