Product Description

250 ml Giuseppe Cagnoni produces his olive oil in the small Umbrian town of Trevi. Located on a steep hill between Assisi and Spoleto it is surrounded by miles and miles of olive groves. Five generations of his family have made exceptional oil from olives grown on their own property. The primary olive is Muraiolo, an Umbrian specialty, with small amounts of Leccino and Frantoio rounding out the blend. Only the first pressing of his finest olives are pressed for this oil. In various parts of Italy, farmers often press small amounts of olives with fresh citrus fruit to create heavenly scented oils for family and friends. This bottle contains some of the most refreshing blood orange oil we've ever tasted. Unlike infused oils, which tend to lose flavor, crushing fruit and olives together maintains the pure flavor of each. Giuseppe uses a special variety of organic orange from Sicily that has a red vein running through the pulp. The heavenly orange flavor balances well with his organic Late Harvest extra-virgin olive oil. It is the you salads, shellfish, and vegetable dishes.
