Our story

One family, two countries, one oil.

We are a family-run organic farm, active since 1989 in the Umbrian countryside. On the hills of Assisi, we cultivate over 18,000 olive trees, all certified organic; we harvest the olives at the perfect stage of ripeness and bring them to our mill in Spello, where the extra virgin olive oil is cold-extracted within 24 hours. Each bottle is a union between Assisi and Spello.

From field to bottle

From tree to mill in less than a day. That’s why it really tastes like olives.


The difference between a good oil and a great oil is decided in the hours following the harvest. We do not waste a single one: we harvest in Assisi and cold-press in our Spello mill within 24 hours. That is why our extra virgin olive oil truly tastes like olives.

More perfume

Fresh grass and artichoke arrive in the glass just as they were on the plant.

Low acidity

A healthy olive, crushed immediately, does not have time to ferment.

More polyphenols

They are what provide the bitterness and the pungency, and protect the oil over time.

Tradition yes, but not all of it

Grandma used to say so. But science says otherwise.

Let's hold onto our traditions, but not the wrong ones. Pick a card and discover the truth.

All 18 myths →
They say True Con l’olio extravergine si può friggere.Did you hear it too? Tap to find out if it's true. True or false? → Close

Il punto di fumo varia da olio a olio (un buon extravergine in genere supera i 190–200 °C), ma conta soprattutto la stabilità: grazie all’acido oleico e agli antiossidanti naturali, l’extravergine regge bene la frittura domestica e forma meno composti polari di molti altri oli.

They say False Extravergine e olio di oliva sono la stessa cosa.Did you hear it too? Tap to find out if it's true. True or false? → Close

Sono due categorie diverse per legge. L’extravergine è ottenuto solo meccanicamente, con acidità massima dello 0,8%. L’“olio di oliva” è una miscela di olio raffinato e vergine: la raffinazione elimina gran parte di aromi e polifenoli.

They say False L’amaro è un difetto dell’olio.Did you hear it too? Tap to find out if it's true. True or false? → Close

Fruttato, amaro e piccante sono i tre attributi positivi dell’assaggio ufficiale; i difetti sono altri, come il riscaldo o la muffa. L’amaro indica olive fresche e ricche di polifenoli.
