Frantoi Cutrera Segreto Degli Iblei - Certified Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 24.5 Fl Oz

From the brand Frantoi Cutrera, since 1906, comes an invitation to enjoy the scents and flavors of the Mediterranean at home! Frantoi Cutrera is located in the most southern territory of Italy, where everything in nature ripens earlier and better. Since 1906, the Cutrera family has been cultivating olive groves in the southeast of Sicily, and their first frantoio (olive oil mill) was founded in 1979. The family-run company now owns 75 hectares of groves in the Monti Iblei territory, and with over 600 awards and recognitions, Frantoi Cutrera is the most awarded Olive Oil producer in Italy.

The Cutrera family's journey began in 1906 when they started cultivating and caring for the olive trees of Chiaramonte Gulfi, a territory where these trees have grown spontaneously for a millennium and that give life to one of the most celebrated PDO olive oils. The family's extra virgin olive oils are produced from the heart of Southeastern Sicily, where the Iblei mountains look toward the sea, and the olives ripen in harmony with Mediterranean breezes. With the treasured heritage left by their forefathers, a legacy made up of principles, values, and knowledge, the Cutrera family loves sharing the taste of Italy and the joy of home-cooked meals with countries all over the world.

Frantoi Cutrera's EVOO is made in Italy, exclusively from green olives, and with only love. The company was among the first in the world to recognize the most important factors for cultivating high-quality olive oil: early harvest and processing within a few hours of hand-picking. With their two-phase cold extraction technique, they are able to select and process only the best olives using the perfect pressing method, kneading, and extraction for each olive variety. The result is always oil that has a distinct fruitiness and a well-balanced bitter and spicy flavor.

EVOO from Frantoi Cutrera is excellent for cooking, frying, grilling, sautéing, and even baking, with a variety of flavor profiles to choose from, making it the perfect way to enhance your meals and delight your taste buds with authentic flavors from Sicily, Italy. The "Segreto Degli Iblei" EVOO, awarded the World's Best Olive Oil for 2021 in the World Olive Oil Competition and New York International Olive Oil Competition, is obtained exclusively from the local Sicilian olive variety and by cold extraction, solely by mechanical means. The special microclimate gives the oil its unmistakable trait of intense fresh fruit, with tones of green tomato and aromatic green herbs, finishing notes of almond and artichoke, creating a unique harmony between its bitter, spicy, and sweet elements.
