  • At the origin of Monocultivar Cerasuola PGI

    Monocultivar Cerasuola IGP is produced from the olives of this typical cultivar from the western part of the island. Those at the base of our oil come in particular from the Sciacca area where the variety is also known by the name of Purritara. It is a very drought-resistant plant and capable of thriving even in very nutrient-poor soils. The care we take of these trees today allows us to combine these great resistance characteristics with a very high quality yield.

The extra virgin with a strong character

Another fine Sicilian DOP oil is obtained from the Cerasuola variety. Its fruitiness is medium or intense, it gives hints of fresh grass and sometimes also of ripe tomato, almond and thistle, it depends on the areas of origin and the degree of ripeness. If ripe, in fact, these olives produce an oil with a very intense fruitiness and aromas of ripe tomato and thyme. Bitter, sweet and spicy are well balanced.

Ulteriori Informazioni

The quality of our Monocultivar Cerasuola PGI 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, drawing only the best from each and thus creating our special blends.

Cerasuola variety plants are vigorous, with large branches that tend to extend upwards and dense foliage. Cerasuola olives are large (they can weigh more than 7 grams) and have an elliptical shape with a round apex and a rounded base. When ripe they take on a characteristic black-purple color with many lenticels on the surface. The fruitiness of the oil obtained is marked and has a characteristic scent of ripe tomatoes. The qualitative properties in this variety are preserved for a very long time.

The Monocultivar Cerasuola PGI oil is produced in our factories starting from olives that arrive directly from the olive groves of our network, in the Sciacca area. We only promote growers capable of providing high quality local raw materials, grown organically. And above all, we support small production: we maintain an intrinsic bond with the local community made up of olive growers and small producers who give our mills the best of their production. With a view to sustainable development and with an important added value for the territory.

Monocultiva Cerasuola PGI can be recognized by the specific brand on the packaging. It guarantees that the oil has been produced according to the specifications established by the "Consortium for the valorisation and protection of extra virgin olive oil PGI Sicily". In addition to the high quality standards (the same ones we follow for all our products), the specification requires that the oil be pressed within the Sicilian territory and only from olives grown on the island. A standard that we also follow for all the other extra virgin olive oils we produce.
