Extra Virgin Olive Oil

The historic olive oil mill

The milling of our olives is a unique feature of "Terre dei Trulli" oil: this, in fact, it takes place within 24 hours from the harvest, in a historic mill in Alberobello, recalling the ancient traditions of oil processing and now the perfect location of our authentic recipe for Alberobello gold.

The Blend

This is how our oil is made!

Cima di Mola

Leccino

The Leccino olive is, by all odds, the most widespread and well-known cultivar all over the world. With a light fruity flavour and a golden yellow colour, with greenish hues, Leccino oil is generally recognized as an excellent quality oil. an excellent quality oil.
