  • How Tonda Iblea Giovanni Cutrera was born

    Tonda Iblea Giovanni Cutrera bears the name of the founder of the current Cutrera family, the one who led our centuries-old activity as millers towards the very high quality milling that distinguishes us today. This extra virgin olive oil, in particular, is produced from olives of the Sicilian Tonda Iblea variety, typical of our area, south-eastern Sicily, a predominant variety in the lands handed down by our family. The ideal habitat for this plant is the hill, it grows luxuriantly up to 600 meters above sea level.
    The tonda Iblea olives used to produce this particular "reserve" of oil come only from the trees of the family olive grove and in particular from the trees that were planted by the expert hands of our forefather Giovanni Cutrera.

The extra virgin with a varied bouquet

In the past, mainly table olives were obtained from the Tonda Iblea variety. Its use for oil production is relatively recent but very satisfactory. So much so that this variety is now the basis of a prized Sicilian DOP which, as Frantoi Cutrera, we have contributed to obtaining. The oil obtained from it has a very intense fruitiness. The bouquet of scents is varied: tomato, cut grass and aromatic herbs are clearly noticeable. The bitter taste is very light while the spiciness is well present and evident. These characteristics make it the perfect ally for the preparation of vegetables, salads and for seasoning fish-based dishes.

Further Information

The quality of our Tonda Iblea Giovanni Cutrera is born in the field but is refined in the oil mill thanks to our incessant research work. By combining study and experience, we have in fact created an innovative system that allows you to set, and therefore manage, every single process of the production plant based on a (secret) "recipe" personalized by cultivar, origin and state of ripeness. Thus we can standardize and enhance the organoleptic properties of each olive variety.

Tonda Iblea Giovanni Cutrera best expresses the characteristics of the variety from which it is born, the Tonda Iblea olive from the family olive groves. It is an indigenous Sicilian cultivar which is widespread especially in the Iblei Mountains where it gives rise to a prized PDO.

Tonda Iblea Giovanni Cutrera oil is produced in our factories starting from olives that come directly from our family olive groves a few hundred meters from the oil mill. The olives are harvested by hand before they reach full ripeness and pressed within a few hours of harvesting. Early harvesting and same-day pressing are two of the elements that allow us to obtain a very high quality extra virgin olive oil.

Tonda Iblea Giovanni Cutrera extra virgin olive oil can be recognized by the special bottle. For an oil so dear to us, we thought of an equally precious package, capable not only of preserving the organoleptic characteristics of the oil from light and heat but also of symbolising, with its original and elegant shape, an authentic, unique and valuable.
