PGI Tuscan Organic Oil
The most Tuscan
My Black label with Gold logo is the chosen one for the PGI crown.
The gang calls me ‘Il Capofamiglia’.
I am strict, superior, regal-looking. I have a strong and determined character. In the kitchen, I am used exclusively raw to enhance meat dishes, tartare or particularly tasty fish dishes.
I smell of artichoke, in the mouth I am bitter on the entry and moderately spicy on the finish. My colour is golden green.
Think of me as the organic Tuscan oil par excellence, an extra virgin olive oil with a fruity market flavour, intense. And with the quality of the PGI mark.

How our IGP Toscano BIO oil is made
In spite of a difficult year – a very hot season – I remain the feisty one. My character comes from my blend: the Frantoio cultivar gives me elegance and robustness, the Moraiolo strength and flavour, the Leccino balance and softness.
I am cold pressed on the same day as the olive harvest, and naturally filtered.
To avoid oxidation, I rest in steel vats with inert argon gas.
The strength of Toscano Organic PGI oil
The PGI designation crown gives me a rigorous, superior and regal appearance. It is no coincidence that the gang calls me ‘the head of the family’.
I smell of artichoke, in the mouth I am bitter on the entry and moderately spicy on the finish, persistent and harmonious. I have a golden green colour.
Why choose PGI Tuscan Organic Oil
I am the chosen one for the crown, the most rigorous, with a regal appearance. I am superior and PGI certified.
In the kitchen use me exclusively raw to enhance tartare meat dishes or particularly tasty fish dishes.
I am only made from Querciamatta olives that are lovingly hand-picked by local people.
My oil mill is state-of-the-art: with its highly technological machinery it controls and enhances each of my qualities.
Because I am the most Tuscan!
