This oil is produced from centuries-old olive trees cultivated by the de Corato family in the Andria area, one of Italy''s most prestigious olive oil production zones and one protected by the official designation of Terra di Bari, Castel del Monte subzone DOP.

Coratina is the principal local olive, a variety high in polyphenols, which slow down oxidation and keep acidity below 0.25%. The olives are hand picked directly from the trees between November and December; utilisation of the continuous system of cold-pressing ensures maximum extraction of aromatics and flavours. The result is a deep, fragrant olive oil with complex aromas of almond and artichoke, which ends on a pleasantly bitterish note. This is a noble olive oil that will highlight the straightforward dishes traditional to Puglia, such as bruschetta, salads, and baked vegetables.
