Produced in the area of Chiaramonte Gulfi, north of Ragusa in southern Sicily, Premier has won a number of awards over the years. Premier is unfiltered and a monocultivar of the local Tonda Iblea olives. The olives are cold pressed at the family’s mill within six hours of being picked. The olives for Premier are organically farmed. It is green with golden reflections and Intensely Fruity.
The notes are elegant and spicy with elements of green tomato. Perhaps you will notice the clear notes of balsamic herbs and sweet almond, the latter certainly from the single variety Tonda Iblea olives. The result is a nice harmony of sweet, bitter, and spicy elements. Perfect on a salad or grilled vegetables.
