Bring the character of Ortice to your table

Ortice has a green fruity profile with tomato and almond notes. Try a small drizzle on toasted bread, bean soup or grilled vegetables. Adding it at the end makes the aromas easier to recognise. For a useful comparison, taste two oils on the same food using similar amounts rather than judging by colour.

Choose intensity to suit the dish

Bitterness and pungency can be pleasant extra virgin attributes, but neither measures acidity nor proves a polyphenol concentration. A forceful oil can dominate a delicate ingredient: try less, or choose a milder profile. For a balanced blend of several olive varieties, compare Moleo in the complete catalogue.

From Sannio to your home kitchen

Our olives are grown in Morcone, in the Sannio area of Campania. Bioagricert controls the organic production method: check the EU logo, control code and origin on the label. Product pages show offered sizes and current ordering conditions.

Before choosing

Are fruitiness and pungency the same?

No. Fruitiness describes aromatic sensations associated with olives and other plants; pungency is a tactile sensation. They can have different intensities in the same oil.

Is intense oil only for finishing?

No. You can cook with it while controlling the heat. A small final drizzle helps you appreciate its aroma on beans, toasted bread and vegetables.
