COOPERATIVA SOCIALE LA FRATERNITÀ

We'd like to present our dop olive oil to you. We use the olive tree“Moraiolo”, common in Assisi and Spoleto. It contributes to the production of an oil with an intense flavour, strong fruity taste, and stable over time. Its agronomic and qualitative characteristics are enhanced and blended with the other varieties of “Leccino”, “Frantoio”, and “Dolce Agogia”. These organoleptic characteristics are even brought out by the the type of the cultivated land, its cultivation methods, the attention drawn to the timely milling and last but not least the climate. As a matter of fact, the medium-low temperatures of the Autumn season foster the formation of oleic acid in the olives.

The olive leaves are used according to an ancient Mediterranean recipe, adapting the method of hand-made preparation, Olivetum is produced, a bitter with a sweet taste made of Olive leaves and citrus fruits peels. It is entirely produced with natural ingredients. Olive leaves and fruit citrus leaves are being put in alcohol to soak; once filtered, caramelized sugar is added until the right maturation is reached. Dense, slightly alcoholic and pleasant to the taste, its flavour is better exhalted if you taste it cool as an aperitif or after meal drink so that you can try its best digestive characteristics.
