The great importance of cultivation in the hill country.

Our lands have an excellent microclimate. The summer temperature moves between 25 to 40 °C during the day; afters sunset, it shows a reduction of 10/15 °C.
This thermal excursion allows the entire olive trees' cultivation to produce an olive oil with a polyphenols percent and a quality above average. .

Classification of extra-virgin olive oil.

According to European normativeness, extra-virgin olive oil must be cold-pressed (with the aid of mechanical presses) and must not have higher acidity levels than 0,8%. Our extra-virgin olive oil has a lower acidity value than 0,3%, so it's a superior quality oil.

The extra-virgin olive oil "Philia" is an harmonious union of three olive trees' varieties: Nocellara del Belice- Bianco Lilla-Pidicuddara. The olives are strictly hand-picked. The cold pressing is made not later than 12 hours after the harvest. Our oil has unique organoleptic characteristics: it's green with golden shades, it's pleasantly bitter and piquant (thanks to very high polyphenols percent), with a medium fruity taste and hints of tomato, almond and artichoke. Extra-virgin olive oil "Philia" is ideal to exalt salads, vegetables, meat and fish.

HEALTH BENEFIT

An olive oil, rich of polyphenols, has antioxidant properties (against oxygen free radicals) and prevents the accurrence of cardiovascular disease (reducing LDL cholesterol levels and increasing HDL cholesterol levels in blood).
