Secret of the Iblei - Sicilian D.O.P Certified Extra Virgin Olive Oil

From the brand Frantoi Cutrera, a family-owned company with a legacy dating back to 1906, comes the opportunity to experience the scents and flavors of the Mediterranean at home. Located in the southernmost territory of Italy, where nature ripens earlier and better, Frantoi Cutrera has been cultivating olive groves in the southeast of Sicily for over a century.

The Cutrera family founded their first frantoio (olive mill) in 1979, and since then, they have seamlessly blended tradition with innovation. The family-run company now owns 75 hectares of olive groves in the Monti Iblei territory, and their commitment to quality has earned them over 600 awards and recognitions, making Frantoi Cutrera the most awarded Olive Oil producer in Italy.

The family's passion for their craft and their desire to share the taste of Italy with the world are evident in every drop of their extra virgin olive oil. Produced exclusively from green olives, Frantoi Cutrera's EVOO is the result of a meticulous process that begins with an early harvest and processing within hours of hand-picking the olives. The two-phase cold extraction technique allows them to select and process only the best olives, resulting in oil with a distinct fruitiness and a well-balanced bitter and spicy flavor.

The Selezione Segreto Degli Iblei Frescolio, awarded the World's Best Olive Oil for 2021 in the World Olive Oil Competition and New York International Olive Oil Competition, is a testament to the family's dedication. This protected origin olive oil is a true reflection of the sun and soil of the Iblei Mountains, with its unmistakably fresh and intense aromas. Tones of green tomato and aromatic green herbs, coupled with finishing notes of almond and artichoke, create a unique harmony between its bitter, spicy, and sweet elements.

Whether you're marinating fish, sautéing vegetables, or baking, Frantoi Cutrera's EVOO is the perfect way to elevate your culinary experiences and delight your taste buds with authentic flavors from Sicily, Italy. With a legacy of over a century and a commitment to quality, Frantoi Cutrera invites you to savor the essence of the Mediterranean, right in the comfort of your own home.
