  • Since 2015
Since time immemorial, Sicily has captivated and amazed with its beauty, its colors, its genuine scents.
The largest island in Italy also known as the island of the sun, with mild and humid winters and hot and dry summers, where men cultivate olive trees and vineyards at the foot of the great smoking volcano, Etna. And in Sicily lives a people with a big heart, welcoming by nature and at the same time distrustful. A people who inhabit a land in the center of the Mediterranean with a destiny suspended halfway between East and West, hinge over the centuries between reason and magic, between science and madness.
A land of myths, of colorful fruits, of wild contradictions.

Sicily is home for us and here we cultivate our centenary olive trees at over 700 meters above sea level.
We are a farm located in Cesarò, a small mountain town north-west of Etna. The family agricultural tradition starts at the beginning of the last century with the progenitor, Peppino "u' lupu" (i.e. the wolf), who works in the service of a rich family of local landowners for whom he manages the agricultural properties located in the Bolo district Bad wife. It will be his son, Calogero, who will start buying agricultural estates until he accumulates an area of about 100 hectares.
In 2015, Calogero's children, Giuseppe and Maria Concetta, founded the Virzì Agricultural Company to renew the family commitment in the olive tree cultivation business and strengthen the promise of valorisation of native cultivars, together with a way of doing agriculture that is as sustainable and respectful of natural processes as possible.

Today Virzì is a brand that works both in the B2B and B2C sectors, specialized in the production of high quality organic extra virgin olive oils, "heart" almonds and thigh pears. All production takes place on the company farms, exclusively under organic farming. Our certifications: Organic, Mountain Product, Slow Food Presidium, IGP SICILY.
We also offer the possibility to create your own label (even for small batches).
