Description
Certified organic extra virgin olive oil from Agro, in a white bottle with gold detailing.
Agro, a certified organic farm in Surbo near Lecce, presents this as its organic line. The producer describes medium fruitiness with herbaceous and almond notes, a lasting pungency and a short bitterness; its panel test reports fruity 3.5, pungent 3.5 and bitter 3.0. Olives harvested in Italy, cold extracted by mechanical means only and stored in stainless steel silos under nitrogen. White cylindrical glass bottle, paper label with embossed gold details and an anti-refill cap.
For restaurants and chefs. For a restaurant the anti-refill cap matters: in Italy, oil served at the table must come in a labelled bottle that cannot be topped up, and this one is ready for that. The white and gold bottle also looks right on the table. The almond and grass notes suit raw dishes such as tuna or beef carpaccio, burrata, grilled vegetables and warm focaccia. A certified organic oil can be named as such on the menu.
For specialty and Italian stores. The white bottle with gold detailing stands out among dark glass and works as a gift on its own. Organic certification and a family farm in Salento give staff two clear arguments. At 500 ml it sits at a middle price that suits a present or a weekend treat. Pair it with taralli, pasta or preserves from Puglia for a regional gift box.
Specs: 500 ml, case of 12, shelf life 18 months, organic, Puglia (Italy).
