Our Story
After many years we have decided to expand our horizons by devoting our energy to the production of an EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL of the highest quality, obtained from our olive groves in Venturina, few miles from the beautifull coast of southern Tuscany.
We devote ourselves passionately to the care of the soil and the olive trees, to the manual harvest of the fruit, ending the process with the ``gramolazione``, a traditional method which consists of a simple mechanical and physical separation of the olive paste.
It is thanks to all this care and dedication that we have achieved our earthy, intense, powerful E.V.O oil, and have decided to name it
EX TERRA VIRES,
which is latin for ``from the earth comes the strenght``.
