    OLIVE OIL

Our Olive Oil

Virdi sources olives from organic, family-run farms in Sicily. We strive to select only the highest quality olives that are rich in polyphenols, low in acidity and full of flavor.  All of the processes used for the harvesting and milling of our olive oil are chosen to preserve and enhance its high levels of positive attributes that maximize its health benefits.

Process

The Land

Our olives come from the mountains of Sicily where olive trees have grown for millennia.  The nutrient rich soil, Mediterranean climate and ancient trees create the perfect conditions for world class olives.

           The Harvest             

Our olives are handpicked to ensure that the aromas, flavors and positive chemical attributes are maintained at the highest level.  This is in contrast to more efficient and cost effective industrial harvesting which can vibrate and bruise olives triggering a process associated with decomposition of their natural, beneficial attributes.  

Milling

Our olives arrive at the mill within 24 hours of harvesting.  We use centrifugal milling equipment which produces better quality oil than traditional pressed oil.

Transparency

We believe in transparency when it comes to olive oil.  There is a lot of misinformation and fraud in the industry.  We want our customers to be confident that they are buying REAL quality organic EVOO.
