About

Partanna Extra Virgin Olive Oil is renowned for its rich and versatile flavor profile, making it suitable for both savory and sweet dishes. Produced in the Belice Valley of Sicily, this oil is crafted from 100% Castelvetrano olives, also known as Nocellara del Belice. The olives are hand-picked to preserve their flavor and texture, then cold-pressed within hours to maintain freshness. This process results in a buttery, nutty taste with a light peppery finish. The oil's unique characteristics are enhanced by the region's microclimate, featuring rich soil and Mediterranean sunshine. Partanna Extra Virgin Olive Oil is bottled in dark tins to preserve its flavor and aroma. When first opened, the oil may appear cloudy with a green hue, but it mellows over time. Its robust flavor includes notes of artichokes and almonds, making it a popular choice for sautéing, roasting, and baking. The oil's quality has earned it recognition as one of the best in the world.
