North Italy Set
North Italy Set
Liguria, Tuscany and Umbria are arguably the most emblematic regions for olive oil production in the North of Italy, with a reputation for quality dating back to ancient times.
Our north Italian set includes (see details below):
Guadagnolo Primus by Fattoria Ramerino (Tuscany)
S’ciappau by Paolo Cassini (Liguria)
Frantoio Batta Blend by Frantoio Batta (Umbria)
Due to the climate and hilly landscape, the olive oils from the North of Italy are more fluid, delicate and herbaceous than their southern counterparts. We have curated three olive oils that best represent these regions and their traditional cultivars:
-
A mastered blend of Moraiolo, Frantoio, Leccino and Americano olive varieties. Medium green fruitiness with herbaceous and artichoke notes. Guadagnòlo is old Italian referring to a large recipient that was used in past centuries to store milling tools.
Cultivars: Moraiolo, Frantoio, Leccino, Americano
Harvest : October 2023
Producer profile -
Made with 100% Taggiasca olives harvested while green, S’ciappau is a delicate fruitiness oil balanced with slight bitterness and spice. It has predominant aromas of artichoke and almond accompanied by herbaceous notes. The oil is great with leafy green salads, and exquisite when dressing fish or white meat.
Cultivar: Taggiasca
Harvest : October 2023
Producer profile -
Elegant and fluid, Frantoio Batta’s blend is a versatile medium fruity EVOO that will be a perfect match on soups, pasta or pulses. It has strong vegetal notes, evocative of lettuce and almond with a powerful peppery finish.
Cultivars: Frantoio, Dolce Agogia, Leccino, Moraiolo
