Pasco la mente d’un sì nobil cibo,
Ch’ambrosia e nectar non invidio a Giove
(Petrarca)
Nectare is more than just olive oil; it's a testament to our unwavering passion, meticulous care, and continuous research.
Continuous research into the native olive cultivars of our region, scrupulous attention to every stage of production, and tireless passion: these are the ingredients that lead to the creation of an organic extra virgin olive oil like Nectare.
Nectare is a delicate, fragrant, and healthy oil. It’s not only delicious but also beneficial to your health. In addition to undergoing rigorous chemical and organoleptic analysis, Nectare benefits from the organic conversion process. We have long since eliminated all pesticides typically used in conventional agriculture.
We dedicate meticulous care to every step of our production process:
- Selective Harvesting: We begin the harvest with the Biancolilla olives, which ripen first. We then patiently wait for the Cerasuola and Nocellara del Belice olives to reach their optimal ripeness. This careful monitoring, while affecting yield, guarantees the highest quality and allows us to maximize the aromatic, flavourful, and nutritional potential of each cultivar.
- Prompt Milling: The olives are milled within hours of harvest, preserving their freshness and flavour.
- Careful Storage: Immediately after milling, the oil is filtered and stored in stainless steel containers with pressure-sealed lids to prevent oxidation and maintain its exceptional quality.
With Nectare, you’re experiencing the true taste of Sicily, crafted with passion and a commitment to excellence.
