Secular trees, hand-picked olives, cold pressing – the unique recipe of Monteadorno extra virgin olive oil.
Our plants are very ancient, characterized by typical Tuscan rustic varieties: robust and more tolerant to temperature changes than other Mediterranean cultivars. Each of these varieties brings to our oil unique organoleptic characteristics: Moraiolo – high intensity of bitter and spicy, Frantoio – strongly aromatic; Leccino sweet, soft and delicate flavor. The final result is our unmistakable extra virgin olive coupage, a balanced mix of all these varieties, according to the ancient Tuscan tradition. An extra virgin olive oil with a highly evocative, unique and recognizable appearance, flavor and scent.
Our oil brings the authentic flavor of Tuscany to your tables. Fundamental as a condiment, but also indispensable in the preparation of typical Tuscan dishes. Monteadorno Extra Virgin Olive Oil is particularly aromatic, a harmonious balance of acidity and spiciness, slightly fruity and with a pleasant bitter note. Fluid in the mouth, it releases subtle aromas of fresh grass, green almond and artichoke. Long and intense aftertaste with a fragrance that responds to even the most refined palates.
