It’s worth dedicating a special paragraph to the fascinating process that transforms olives into our valuable oil we are proud of.
In our farm the beginning of the production phase occurs with the annual cultivation work given to the care of every single olive tree to obtain the right fructification. To this purpose, we can mention some ritual operations such as: the removal of shoots, the soil cleaning of weeds by means of lawn-mower tractors, the monitoring of the humus biochemical composition, made through several sample analysis to integrate the soil with fertilizers, the prevention of possible fly attacks through the application of pheromonic baits, the fight against flies through methods requiring the minimum application of chemical substances; finally, between October and January, the picking period occurs. We use mechanical and pneumatic tools but also knocking down olives with a pole. Picked olives in our oil press are manufactured within 12 hours.
With the full pressing method applied without the addition of hot water, we obtain a high quality extra virgin olive oil. Picked olives put into large cases; weight, registered and finally washed., are taken to a hummer crusher smashing pulp and stone to obtain an homogenous paste, that is automatically poured into stainless steel tanks. During this delicate phase the olive paste is always mixed gently for the time required by the kind of oil and under the expert supervision of chief oil-miller.
The paste obtained, put into a centrifuge, is separated according to specific weight.
The oil obtained is already an excellent example of the quality characterizing the finished product which will be subject to strict laboratory controls and to a natural decantation in steel containers stored away from light and heat sources before passing to the next stages of bottling, marketing and tasting it, for the pleasure of our taste.
