Primum' extra virgin olive oil
Harvest period: November
Cultivar: Tondina 90%, Carolea 10%
“Primum’ is the extra virgin olive oil that is obtained in the first harvest period that runs from the end of October through the entire month of November. The oil obtained in this period has high standards of organoleptic properties, excellent as a raw condiment for all dishes, appreciated by all for the personality with which it enriches the various dishes of the Mediterranean diet, it has a light fruitiness characterised by its medium bitterness and persistent pungency.
Primum vivere, deinde philosophari’ is a call to concreteness, the doing and then the theorising, not giving in to theories without first “getting one’s hands dirty” and it is only through constant work that one arrives at results, the ones that count, the ones that fill your life.

Coming exclusively from the olives of the Papaleo family’s farm, this mono-cultivar represents the essence of the territory.
The slightly perceived and persistent bitterness and pungency, the light fruitiness of ripe fruit with hints of field grass, almonds and artichoke are the characteristics of this genuine product. To be used strictly raw as an ingredient in your dishes. A limited edition of bottles as precious and unique as our love for the art of “making oil”.
