Casa Caponetti Olive Oil - Oilo Nuovo 2024 Harvest

Oilo Nuovo 2024 Harvest

Olive Oil from Lorenzo at Casa Caponetti is unlike anything else. The flavor of the fresh picked olives is captured inside the tin. The flavor is unmatched, buttery and herbaceous with a hint of white pepper. Utilized by the best chefs in the world, this limited supply olive oil is only available to buy immediately following the October/November harvest and quickly sells out every year.

Specifically extra virgin olive oil is better for you because of the process in which it is made preserves the highest amount of antioxidants in the oil. Lorenzo begins to grind his olives immediately after harvest. The oil is then extracted from the olive paste at 28C or lower this is known as a cold press. Casa Caponetti uses tins rather than glass for their olive oil to help the preservation of quality and avoid oxidation with sunlight contact, which can cause the oil to become rancid.

This peppery olive oil makes a great finishing oil to roasted vegetables, grilled fish or roasted chicken. We also love to dip in thick slices of sourdough to enjoy this fresh olive oil!
