Rolando raves: “My desert island olive oil—use it on anything and everything! Olio Verde astounds me each year. Accentuate its fruitiness by pouring it over a big bowl of spaghetti al pomodoro. Drench a piece of toast topped with IASA Anchovies or Branzino with this velvety oil.”
2023 Harvest Notes
Olio Verde was the first Sicilian olive oil made with 100% Nocellara del Belice olives. The 2023 Harvest has a grassy aroma and fruity flavor. Notes of perfectly ripe tomatoes, banana, and herbs are punctuated by a hint of white pepper that amuses the palate. The oil has an unctuous and velvety mouthfeel, typical of Sicilian oils of the “New Generation” which Olio Verde helped foster.
