Frantoio

This variety is appreciated for its productivity and for the organoleptic qualities which characterize the oil obtained from its fruits. A very fresh oil which has intense fruity notes and nuances of fresh grass, artichoke and green almond. It has a light fruity flavor, elegant, its sweet taste gradually transforms manifesting light spicy tones.


Leccino

Olives of the Leccino variety produce an oil of medium intensity, with a slightly bitter and spicy aftertaste. This variety is defined as "dual-purpose", because the olives are used to produce oil or as table olives, useful for the classic Apulian aperitifs.

Ogliarola Salentina

Ogliarola Salentina has a light fruity taste, more intense than Leccino and less than Coratina. It releases pleasant hints of almond, the taste is full-bodied and pleasant, with balanced hints of bitter and spicy. It is a product which meets the taste of consumers looking for an oil which is too "invasive".
