First pressed extra virgin olive oil from the Monti Iblei — a Protected Designation of Origin in southeastern Sicily — first pressed, within hours of harvest, unfiltered, exactly a s it left the grove. Fruity at first. Then grassy. Then a slow heat at the back of your palate that means the olives came from somewhere specific, tended by someone who knew exactly when to harvest them. This is Sicilian extra virgin olive oil the way it was always meant to travel — whole, alive, nothing lost. The Sicilians have always had this oil in their kitchens. Not for special occasions — for Tuesday. Over bread, over fish, over a bowl of pasta that suddenly tastes like it took all day. That's what a good first, cold pressed olive oil does. It just makes everything taste like you meant it. Show more
