The climate and the characteristics of the Ogliastra territori are perfect for the cultivation of olives. In Ogliastra the production of young and fruity olive oils have received the denomination of DOP olive oils and have won various prizes in Italy and abroad.
Olive oil donates an unmistakable and genuine flavour to any kind of recipe, for instance pickled olives or olive paté, accompanied by the aroma of the Mediterranean spices (laurel, wild fennel and chilli pepper).
The nutritional, organoleptic and chemical-physical characteristics of olives are conserved by the high standard of quality signing the various phases of oil production, strictly extravergine olive oil: starting from selecting the best olives to the pressing and finally the bottling; the genuineness of the product is also guaranteed by the absence of chemical additives and preservatives. These are the secrets which determine the success of the Ogliastrian olive oil, even beyond Sardinian borders.
Farmers and producers which have been working for years in the territory are the guardians and warranters of the antique traditions of this healthy oil of impassable quality and they preserve this immense patrimony making it factor of exclusiveness and competition.
