Terraliva – Cherubino PGI Organic Slow Food Presidium, Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Sicily
The Organic Cherubino IGP Extra Virgin Olive Oil, from the Terraliva Company, is a Slow Food Presidium extra virgin olive oil, obtained solely from the cold pressing of hand-picked olives. It is certified Organic, IGP Sicily, Kosher and Halal.
The authenticity, purity, freshness of the product and respect for the plants are the key objectives that the company always aims for: to guarantee this, in fact, the olives are picked exclusively by hand without the aid of machinery which would instead cause trauma to the fruit. Once harvested, the olives are taken to the oil mill to be pressed with the Protoreatore, a cutting-edge machine capable of guaranteeing a greater load of polyphenols, the noblest part of the oil.
Terraliva was born in the heart of the Iblei Mountains, in the small mountain village of Buccheri, in the province of Syracuse; the centuries-old olive trees, located in a volcanic territory at 700 meters above sea level, benefit greatly from the thermal excursion that is created between day and night and which gives the plants a positive stress capable of ensuring high-quality production and unique organoleptic properties. Here you can find very ancient native cultivars such as the Tonda Iblea together with other minor ones such as the Nocellara Etnea, the Nocellara del Belice and the Zaituna: from these are born "experiential monocultivars" which inebriate the senses with their characteristic hints of tomato, wild thistle, medicinal herbs, almonds and dried fruit.
