Occhipinti Olio Extra Virgine Gheta Olive Oil 2025 3L Pouch

This special, cold-pressed oil by Arianna is crafted with Nocellara del Belie olives from the trees of her grandmother Margherita, fondly nicknamed 'Gheta' by her grandchildren. It embodies "many memories – of her, of us and of this land so familiar to me, that is the Valle del Belice" says Arianna. An intense, fresh and balanced olive oil that can be used raw and to cook with. Just beautiful.

"The life of every Sicilian is intertwined with olive oil," Arianna notes. "The production of Nocellara del Belice is our family tradition, a tradition that dates back to 1600 A.D. It has the most beautiful memories: racing through the olive groves, falling and skinning my knees, the taste of bitter olives in the mouth. The olive harvest was a time of gathering, of parties and stories, of many families with the same origins. Where children played carefree, eating bread and freshly-milled oil; so spicy, yet so good. Today it is still special: green, golden, and fragrant. Fortunately, even today, we have the same desire to play, the same light-heartedness, and joy of the past. In addition to the old property of Castelvetrano, we own olive groves in the Piraino district, Chiaramonte Gulfi."
