Affiorato Galantino extra virgin olive oil 500ml

Affiorato extra virgin olive oil is obtained using the ancient method of "affioramento" (outcropping), which involves manually collecting a very small percentage of the oil (about 2-3%) that forms spontaneously on the olive paste with the first cold pressing. Affiorato oil, which is therefore not subject to any extraction force, has a dense texture and a perfect harmony between its delicate fragrance and its light, fruity flavor.
