Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil Novello 500 ml - Vivere Verde
Out of stock
High-quality organic extra virgin olive oil from a farm in southern Sicily. The olives are grown according to organic principles, and the oil is BIO-certified.
Piquant and aromatic
Novello is freshly pressed olive oil with pulp that gives it a full-bodied, piquant and aromatic flavour with wonderful character.
Organic oil from a single farm
This oil comes from a single farm. That means it contains no olives from anyone else’s harvest. Every olive that contributes to the oil is carefully inspected. No outside party has had access to the trees, harvest, pressing or storage at any stage.
The trees are of the Tonda Iblea variety, which is grown only in the Ragusa Valley in Sicily. This olive variety has been named one of the finest olive varieties in the world for oil production.
The olive oil is organically certified as well as certified for origin and quality: D.O.P. Monte Iblei, by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture. This inspection and certification guarantee that it is 100% pure oil made from olives from this area, and that pressing was carried out without heat or chemicals.
The olives are hand-picked
The olives are hand-picked and pressed within just a few hours into a wonderfully thick oil, which rests in a steel tank for several months to clarify and become more stable over time. In late spring, it is bottled in an attractive bottle made of thick, dark glass.
Polyphenols – against oxidative stress
The polyphenols in olive oil help protect blood lipids from oxidative stress. The beneficial effect is achieved with a daily intake of 20 grams of oil (approx. 1.5 tbsp). (According to EU Regulation LexUriServ. 432/2012).
