Titone Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

2018 Sicilian Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Tasting notes

Titone Organic Extra Virgin Olive oil is an expertly-balanced oil with a vibrant grassiness and notes of tomato leaf, artichoke and green herbs. Pleasingly bitter and bold, this Sicilian oil has a hearty amount of pepper in the finish that lingers on the palate. A robust oil.

How to use

This masterful Sicilian blend is our number one choice for finishing—pour it abundantly over blanched vegetables with a spritz of lemon and a few flakes of Maldon Sea Salt, add a final flourish to Pasta con le Sarde (Pasta with Sardines and Fennel) or drizzle over grilled fish and seafood. 

Titone olive oil also makes a beautiful base for fresh herb-based sauces like Italian salsa verde, chimichurri and French pistou.

About the producer

Titone is produced in the northwest coastal province of Trapani on the island of Sicily. In fact, the family that owns the 3,000 olive trees on hundreds of hectares, insist that organic farming is the only way to produce a quality olive oil. The precision they use to produce this oil no doubt is based on the exacting nature of the family's other business... chemistry and pharmaceuticals!
