The Molise is the smallest region of Italy but is a land rich in local
products ( vine, olive oil, bread, past, mozzarella, caciocavalli, cheeses,
delicatessen, mushrooms, truffles, sweets and cakes). What distinguishes
those products from the other Italian products is their elaboration
and preparation. Vegetables and fruits are well-know for their freshness
and delicious taste.
Extravirgin olive oil: excellent high quality product with fragrant flavour
How
to use it? : From our olive groove ‘mille ulivi’,
we extract the olive oil. The olives ‘Gentile di Larino’
renders oil of green and yellow color, fruity aroma and full of flavour
(sometimes a touch of piquant). This oil is used raw in dressing or
as a condiment for salads, vegetables, pastas, soups, seafood, meats
and cakes.
Extravirgin olive oil is obtained from the variety of olives ‘Gentile
di Larino’. They are picked exclusively by hand when they have
not yet reached full ripeness or, in any case, not beyond the end of
November.
The olives are put insides containers with holes and then sent to the
press within 24 hours of the harvest. The pressing of olives is done
with traditional means in order to guarantee the high quality.
