FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does your oil taste like?
Our oil is a medium fruity blend, very balanced, with dominant notes of almond, artichoke and cut grass. It is a medium fruity, which satisfies the most demanding palates without "attacking" the throat. To remove any doubts, our tasting kit is available online.
What is the variety of olive trees/oil?
Our oil is obtained from the cultivars Cellina di Nardò, Ogliarola Salentina and Leccino. The aromatic characteristics of the oils allow us to obtain a very balanced blend. The spiciness of the Cellina is softened by the sweetness of the Ogliarola. The Leccino gives the oil those olfactory notes that we like so much.
Where are you and where do you have your cultivated land?
Our mill is located in Erchie, a small town in the province of Brindisi, in the upper Salento, Puglia. Our olive groves are all within a 30 km radius around the company center.
What is the Saracino oil production process?
The harvest begins early in the morning and as soon as the first 5-6 bins of olives are completed, we go to the mill to immediately carry out the milling and avoid fermentation processes. The harvest ends at 2:00 pm every day and by 10:00 pm all the olives collected during the day are pressed. The oil is tasted, selected and analyzed after which it is left to rest in the silos for a few days. Once the coarser pulp has settled to the bottom it is decanted, bottled and shipped.
What are the shipping costs?
Costs vary based on weight and range from €5 to €10. Shipping is free in Italy for orders over €139.
