By blending the Frantoio and Leccino cultivars coming from the exclusive setting extending from Salento to Valle d’Itria, I created this new product.
After 18 years since the foundation of Olearia Caldera, this oil was born during the 2021 harvest campaign with the aim to complete the range of 100% Italian products. It’s a product that combines high quality with a fair price, in response to the needs of our increasingly demanding customers.
