We are proud to announce that our olive oil has been certified as IGP Olio di Calabria. This brand represents not only a recognition of our commitment to quality and sustainability, but also an indissoluble bond with the Calabrian territory and tradition.
But what exactly does IGP Oil from Calabria mean? The IGP Olio di Calabria is a brand that is attributed to those olive oils that respect rigorous production and quality criteria. This brand guarantees that the olive oil produced is of alta qualità, tracciabile, legato al territorio d’origine and produced without the use of chemical products harmful to humans and the environment.
To be certified as Extra Virgin Olive Oil IGP Olio di Calabria, it must be:

- produced in the Calabrian territory;
- – with a maximum acidity level of 0.5%;

- – with a color ranging from green to straw yellow with chromatic variation over time due to chlorophyll;
- – the smell is fruity of green olive with floral notes, artichoke, leaf, tomato and freshly mowed grass.
These characteristics ensure not only the distinctive taste and aroma of our oil, but also its health benefits.
