Olive oil producers from Italy with over 100 years of tradition

Americo QuattrociocchiThe Quattrociocchi family can look back on more than 100 years of tradition in the cultivation and processing of olives: In fact, the first olive trees were planted on the estate as early as 1888.
Today Americo Quattrociocchi , Grandson of the founder, continues this tradition in an effort to continuously improve the quality of its olive oils.

This is how Quattrociocchi olive oil is produced

The production of high quality olive oils by Quattrociocchi takes place entirely in-house, from the cultivation and harvest of the olives to the oil in the bottle. First, the olives are harvested by hand and then brought to the man-made oil mill.
There they are cleaned of impurities, washed and finally cold pressed. The pressing takes only a few hours and takes place at temperatures below 27 degrees. The result of this gentle processing are top quality olive oils, which are characterized by their extremely fruity aroma and a particularly low acidity.
These properties and the high quality of the olive oils from Quattrociocchi are also based on two other factors: firstly, the olives are harvested while still green , secondly, the oil is stored in stainless steel tanks without oxygen contact. The latter ensures a long shelf life. The latter and the fact that the oil is stored in stainless steel tanks without oxygen until it is filled also ensure a long shelf life.

The varieties of olives

Quattrociocchis use Itrana, Leccino and Moraiolo olives for their high-quality oils. All three varieties are also used to produce pure olive oils, each bearing the name of the variety.
Particularly noteworthy is the BIO OLIVASTRO Olive Oil with the black label. It is made exclusively from organically grown olives of the Itrana variety.
