Description
Domitilla Extra Virgin Olive Oil
This single-variety oil is an extra virgin olive oil obtained by pressing only Favolosa olives.
Favolosa or FS-17 is an olive cultivar obtained from mass selection of Frantoio seedlings, and we are proud to say that it was discovered in the experimental fields cultivated by the CNR right here in Tuoro sul Trasimeno, in the Sanguineto area.
It has recently been very successful due to its resistance to the Xylella bacterium, a characteristic that makes it suitable for cultivation even in the affected areas of southern Italy.
On our farm, it is cultivated in high density with completely mechanical harvesting. The immediate pressing of the olives allows us to obtain oils with a medium intensity herbaceous fruitiness that offer vegetal hints of wild grass. Bitter and spicy on the palate, it finishes with notes of chlorophyll.
