The oil is obtained from an olive cultivation (Piantone of Falerone) which dates back to the roman empire era. In fact, the area which this cultivation covers, is named after a former roman colony, the ruins of which can still be seen today dating back 29 century B.C.
The oil is fruity, pungent and with a bitter aftertaste, with hints of almond and of artichoke. The poliphenol content is quite high and it is rich in omegas 3 and 6. It is particulary suitable to accompany vegetable soups, cooked vegetables and bruschetta.
