ORGANIC EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
The Cascavilla farm was founded by Antonio Cascavilla way back in 1968. It is the story of a small farm in the province of Foggia, assigned to the Cascavilla family following the agrarian reform of the 1950s, which has now become a point of reference in Puglia for organic farming.

CHRONOLOGY OF THE PRODUCTION OF OUR ORGANIC OIL

5:30
The day of the harvest has arrived, after a long year of gentle care and patient waiting.

7:00 am
We work with arms outstretched towards the branches, picking the olives. They slide down our hands one by one and within seconds they're in the boxes. It's a silent celebration. Tasty and fresh, they are the young fruit of an ancient craft.

12:00 pm
Let's start with defoliation and debranching. We then continue with the washing and pressing, at which time the olives are milled with stone millstones. The olive paste is pressed and reaches a maximum temperature of 26 degrees, after which it passes through the extractor from which the oil - now separated from the water - is obtained in its purest form.

3pm
Stored in steel tanks under nitrogen, Cascavilla oil is ready to be packaged.
