For over a century, the La Pira family has cared for olive trees around Canicattini Bagni (Siracusa). Their tribute to mamma Tina is this extra virgin beauty: 100% Zaituna (a historic local cultivar), cold-extracted for pure, clean flavor.
Expect a medium fruitiness: green tomato leaf, artichoke, fresh herbs, a gentle almond finish, and that elegant Sicilian pepper kick. It’s the Olive oil you reach for when the dish is already good because a drizzle makes it wow.
Tip: splash on sliced tomatoes with flaky salt, finish grilled fish, fennel-orange salad, burrata, chickpeas… or just bread + oil (no regrets).
PS — Why Bag-in-Box (3L)?
Because light and oxygen are olive oil’s worst enemies. The opaque box blocks light, the inner bag collapses as you pour(so no air sneaks in), and the tap keeps things tidy. Result: fresher flavor for longer (think many weeks after opening), less waste, and easy daily drizzling. Decant a little into a table bottle if you like, refill from the tap, store the box cool & dark.
