OUR OILS
Tasting our olive oil opens the door to unexpected aromas and flavours that reveal the richness of its character. It reveals pleasant bitter and spicy nuances that come from a high concentration of polyphenols, powerful antioxidants that not only enrich the flavour but also “prolong its life”. At the same time, there is a diversity of aromatic notes – freshly cut grass with aromas of artichokes, green tomatoes, mint, chicory, almonds, basil and citruses. These essences are constantly changing and varying in intensity, due to the different varieties of olive trees from which we extract different oils.
MAURINO
The oil is delicate, of fresh olives. The fruitiness tends to be light, with herbaceous and slightly almondy tones. The taste is predominantly sweet; it has pleasant notes of bitterness and spiciness.
Due to its delicacy, Leccino is the ideal companion for salads, fish dishes, white meat, steamed vegetables, salads and fresh cheese. Its delicacy enhances the flavour of complex, spicy dishes.

FRANTOIO

It is particularly fluid and pleasant to the taste due to its good oleic acid content. It is suitable for seasoning all kinds of salads, bruschetta, legume soup and barbecue meat. It also goes perfectly with a refined cuisine of fish dishes.
CORATINA
With its high oleic acid and antioxidant content this oil has excellent chemical characteristics that support its resistance to rancidity. Sensory analysis reveals a yellow colour with green reflections, a medium-high fluidity, a medium fruitiness, a strong taste, with an evident hint of almond, accompanied by nuances of artichoke and chicory; after an initial taste of sweetness, the oil shows a definite note of bitterness accompanied by a good spiciness.
Ideal for lovers of full flavours, excellent for enhancing main courses of meat and grilled vegetables, to accompany vigorous-tasting ingredients such as porcini mushrooms, anchovies, mature cheese, homemade bread and soups.

ISTRSKA BELICA
The oil has a herbaceous green fruitiness, with hints of artichoke, tomato and aromatic herbs. On the palate, the initial sweet note gives way to distinct bitter and spicy notes determined by a good polyphenol content, which improves its shelf life. The high oleic acid content, together with the low quantity of saturated fatty acids, makes the oil particularly fluid and pleasant to taste.
It loves challenging dishes. Excellent on roast porcini mushrooms, pasta, hot vegetable starters, red meat and game, risottos, home-made bread and soups

A high-quality oil with an intense green and yellowish colour, a fruity aroma and a sweet taste of herbs, pine nuts and citrus fruits, with a medium bitterness and a moderate spiciness.
