- Early season harvest green Leccino olives, pressed on site within two hours of harvesting. This single estate extra virgin olive oil leads with a moderate bitterness, pungency and peppery finish. Yes, you can use it in cooking, but perhaps save this one for dipping fresh, crusty bread, perhaps with the added delight of middle eastern inspired dukkah. The ideal finishing oil – adding depth and oomph to bitter salad greens and radicchio; drizzled over freshly sliced tomatoes or avocados and steamed vegetables.
- Leccino olives originated from Tuscany (in the late Middle Ages), and so being one of the oldest cultivars in Italy, bring forth an oil which speaks to the aficionado in us all.
- Harvested, Pressed and Bottled 19th April 2023.
