Product Overview
This palate pleasing Tuscan olive oil is produced from 100% organically grown ancient trees on the Le Corti estate of Principe Corsini just south of Florence. The Corsini family has been in the olive oil business for about 500 years.
The property's 15,000 olive trees are still picked by hand, and the fruits of the harvest are crushed and cold pressed on site in an authentic stone mill or frantoio. Most of Corsini's employees at harvest time take their payment in oil rather than cash, giving credence to this oil's reputation as "liquid gold."
The Estate's traditional production of extra virgin olive oil has remained unchanged, although the technology used to extract and preserve the oil has been improved.
