Extra Vergine D.O.P Olive Oil by Oliva d'Oro, 500ml

Sale price€28,80

A Little Bottle of Umbrian Sunshine

Made by a Dutch Father-Daughter Duo
Olive oil has been made in Italy for thousands of years, so naturally, when a Dutch father and daughter decide to start producing their own in Umbria, they do so with a healthy dose of dedication, a great deal of love and, presumably, the occasional raised Italian eyebrow.

Meet Tess and her dad Fred, the duo behind Oliva d’Oro. Together, they have poured their love for Italy into their family estate in Monte del Lago, where they care for thousands of olive trees and produce their own beautiful extra virgin olive oil. And while they may not have been born into an ancient Italian olive-oil dynasty, Tess is nothing if not determined. Not only to make wonderful oil, but to do so with respect for nature. Oliva d’Oro is produced without synthetic chemicals or pesticides and carries an official organic certification to prove it.

The result is a beautifully fruity extra virgin olive oil with a fresh, balanced character and the unmistakable taste of olives grown under the Umbrian sun. Delicious drizzled over salads, grilled vegetables, fish, meat, pasta or a simple slice of good bread. In fact, a good piece of bread may be the most honest way to appreciate it: pour, dip and let the oil do the talking.

And then there is the bottle. Elegant, beautifully designed and rather lovely to leave standing on the kitchen counter, but the real charm is in the label. It reads like a tiny fairytale storybook, with little illustrations of Tess and her dad working among the olive trees. Even the practical details have been given a little poetry: the wooden stopper creates an airtight seal when the bottle is not in use, opens smoothly and closes again with satisfying ease. A lovely bottle in every sense, from the oil inside to the little story wrapped around it.
