Every Delizie De'Lizio oil is traceable: from the coordinates of the grove to the harvest and laboratory analyses. We regularly document photo and video material and share these insights openly.
Our olive trees are located in Castel di Iudica and the Calatino region of Sicily. They grow in clay limestone soils, benefit from over 280 days of sunshine each year, and are naturally ventilated by constant winds from the mountains and the sea.
The groves are cultivated using traditional methods, with extensive experience, patience, and deep respect for nature.
Every Delizie De’Lizio oil is fully traceable: from the exact coordinates of the grove to the harvest and the laboratory analyses. We regularly document the process with photos and videos and share these insights openly.
Harvesting takes place early, between late September and early November. Depending on the desired flavor profile, green or slightly ripening olives are selected. Harvesting is done manually or mechanically with the aid of nets to keep the fruit undamaged and ensure the highest quality.
After pressing, the oil is separated from the fruit water and solids. It is then left to rest so that natural suspended solids can settle. Each batch is tested sensorily and checked by laboratory analysis.
After harvesting, the olives are taken to the mill within a few hours. There they are washed, leaves are removed, and they are gently ground. Extraction is carried out exclusively using cold methods in order to best preserve aromas, polyphenols, and natural ingredients.
Bottling takes place shortly after processing. The oil is bottled or canned in light-protected containers to preserve its freshness and quality. Each bottle is assigned to a batch and is fully traceable.
For over four decades, we have been combining the centuries-old tradition of Sicilian olive growers with state-of-the-art quality assurance. This combination makes our work unique and authentic. It forms the basis for each and every one of our olive oils.
Our Marchio di Qualità guarantees you exceptional products that meet the highest standards. This seal of quality stands for trust and craftsmanship. It shows that every oil has passed our strict quality tests.
Each harvest has its own story, which we document, certify, and make fully traceable. Traceability extends back to the tree of origin. This means you always know exactly where your olive oil comes from.
Every bottle is a promise: purest organic quality, absolute transparency, and unadulterated taste. Our aim is to offer Mediterranean excellence in its most honest form. Every single bottle of our olive oil stands for this.
