L'acropoli di Puglia Olive Oil
|
This oil is derived from hand
picked "coratina" olives that are harvested whole and fresh at the time of maturation. The olives are immediately
transferred to the mill-stone where they are ground and slowly cold pressed. After the processes of settlement, maturation
and refinement, the extra virgin olive oil "Mosto" is born. Mosto, translating to "must" is L'Acropoli
di Puglia's unfiltered oil resulting from the first"raw press". It is high in the antioxident polyphenpol,
and boasts a low percentage of oleic acis with an ideal balance of linolenic and linolenic acids.
Taste: Herbaceous
and pleasantly bitter.
Gastronomic Combination: Fresh grass flavor indicated above for all season cuisine; try
over grilled vegetables, superlative raw - uncooked.

The extra virgin olive oil "Mosto" is free of any suspended/floating pulp
particles which is a result of a gentle refining filtration system that tumbles the olives in a cotton/wool and then pours
into a large steel container.
The result is a naturally filtered green colored "Viride" oil called Vivace:
a young oil, fresh and gentle to the palate with a strong fruity scent, and a freshly cut grass flavor.
Taste:
Intense, sharp, robust, and elegant with a unique, enjoyably pungent aftertaste.
Gastronomic Combination: Recommended
to be served crude/uncooked with bruschetta, salads, and vegetables.

In a similar developement process
of Vivace, Amabile is gently placed in buried cisterns carved from select calcified rock and is matured in a natural constant
temperature, away from excess heat, air and light. The Final mature oil offers a unique sweet almond flavor.
Taste:
Harmonious, balanced, light, delicate and a sweet almond aftertaste.
Gastronomic Combination: Appropriate for all
cooking including sauces, roasts, side dishes, but especially for fish.
