Harvesting period: Harvesting takes place at the beginning of the olive veraison, when the accumulation of polyphenolic substances is maximum; olives were harvested from October 10 to 14.
Harvesting method: hand-harvesting directly from the tree (manual grazing) of olives grown on terraced volcanic soils, with pruning of low branches toward the ground to expose the least leaf area to the winds.
Methods of extraction: Milling immediately after harvesting, by means of a cold, continuous-cycle extraction system, which carries out the gramolatura stage (mixing of the olive paste useful for separating the oil) in a controlled atmosphere, allowing the aromatic components to be best preserved.
