100% Coratina from the single site Tenuta Torre di Mossa. Age of trees is unknown, but ranges from 120 to over 200 years old. A singular oil that is one of the great jewels in Italian oil production. Deep gold green color, packed with aromas of olive, sage, artichoke and green almonds.
The taste is very strong, black pepper and spiciness are very high. Flavors of green lettuce, artichoke and black pepper. ONE OF ITALY’S GREATEST OLIVE OILS! Great on fresh burrata, pasta with tomatoes and steamed vegetables.
The family has produced olive oil since the 1600s but in the 1970s Saverio De Carlo blazed a path to quality that no one else was willing to take. The result of his work is evident in the family’s success as the estate has grown into, hands down, one of the world’s greatest producers of olive oil. In our office we refer to them among ourselves as simply, “the world’s greatest”.
