EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL ORGANIC

Extra virgin olive oil in certified BIO quality, superior category, pressed by a gentle “cold“ at temperatures up to 27 degrees Celsius, within 8 hours of hand harvesting. The base of the oil consists exclusively of the top monocultivar Nocellara del Belice. The oil is characterized by an intense green color with golden reflections, a rich aromatic composition, a moderately intense fruity, fully rounded taste, slightly spicy, with a pleasant “end” , with a touch of tomatoes and herbs. Thanks to the really low processing temperatures, Centonze oil contains a high amount of bioactive components and enzymes. The oil is suitable for preparing fish, seafood, vegetable soups and red meat.

Olive groves stretch along the hills of the west coast of Sicily, which slope gently towards the crystal clear sea and the ancient the Greek colony of Selinunte, where olive trees have been cultivated for centuries. Here is the ecological farm "Case di Latomie". The owner of the estate is the Centonze family. The estate is set in a place steeped in history “at every step” and covers a fully fenced area of nearly 35 acres. The charming scenery of centuries-old olive and citrus groves is located between the ancient quarries " Latomia " and the ancient walls of the stone enclosure "Conigliere" in a landscape typical for long relaxing walks. Only citrus and olive trees are grown here,
whose advantage is the organic method of cultivation, i.e. BIO quality. The cultivation of olives accompanies the history of the people of Belica. The first settlements in this area are related to the creation of Selinunte, an ancient colony of Magna Grecia, which was founded in the seventh century BC. Oil cultivation dates back to the 5th century BC when "Selinuntuni" cultivated olive trees and colonized the Valle del Belice.

A matter that should be taken for granted – hand pruning and hand picking.

Pruning is done by hand in a traditional way that is passed down from generation to generation. This allows us to obtain large fleshy olives that provide high quality oil. The best olives are hand-harvested in the months of October and November, and pressed for oil within 8 hours for a student. The special nature of the terrain and climate, the centuries-old trees, our passion and love for their growth are the reasons why Centonze olive oils are a real treasure. Immediately after hand harvesting, the olives are transported for processing in perforated boxes to ensure maximum quality. First, they are cleaned of dust, twigs and leaves, then they are gently rinsed with cold water and transferred to vibrating grids to remove the remaining impurities. with a maximum temperature of up to 27°C

The whole process takes place in three stages: 1. Crushing, 2. Chopping, 3. Extraction. Each of these operations must be carried out very carefully under the best possible conditions in order to promote the maximum quality of the oil. In a continuous cycle system, crushing is done by pressing the olives onto perforated rollers, then the olives are sliced evenly, making sure that the temperature never exceeds 27°C. For pressing, the so-called cold press system is used, which enables gentle pressing, so again there is no significant increase in temperature. The aim is to produce an oil with a very high density, a bright green color, with an herbal and spicy aroma and a fruity taste. When obtaining oil, we do not use filtering, which significantly compromises the quality of the oil.

Centonze olive oils belong to the absolute top on a global scale and are placed in the top positions in the most demanding evaluations every year. The list of achievements is literally endless, that's why we present only the ranking for 2014 as an example: Top Ten - "BIOFACH" (Nuremberg 14-02-2014) / Gourmet d'Argeant - "AVPA" (Paris 10-04-2014) / Gold Medal - "LA EVOO COMPETITION" (Los Angeles 14-04-2014) / Grande Olio - "SLOW FOOD" (Rome 04-05-2014).......
