OSTRO
Italian organic
extra virgin
olive oil
It was Luca de Filippo who named this oil Ostro, a name dear to sailors for it recalls the wind from the South blowing all sails back home, incidentally, combining with the toponym of the farm and its proximity to the sea.
It is an Organic Extra Virgin Olive oil obtained from selected varieties: Frantoio, Cipressino, and Leccino, all grown on our farm, selected by us, harvested and straight away taken to the modern continuous cycle oil mill to be pressed within that same day, in order not to alter the organoleptic and nutritional values.
Straight after, the oil is filtered and stored in nitrogen-sealed steel containers at a temperature between 14 and 20 degrees.
Bright green with golden glares, dense and voluptuous, with an impressive olfactory power: amazing sensations of greens, of freshness, of herbals with fields aromas and a delicate hint of celery. On the palate it explodes with sensory fragrances of bitter cardoon and artichoke leaf. The flavor reaches the peak with no hesitancy, firm and persistent with an astonishing chilly final which evokes pink pepper notes, accented by rocket leaf, typical of the Leccino olives.
Suitable for grand dishes, great on red and game meat.

GARBINO
Italian organic
extra virgin
olive oil
As a tribute to the tradition upheld here at Scovaventi farm, our Garbino oil is also named after a wind: the wind that blows from the south-west, better known as Libeccio or Africo.
Nature is never to be harassed, but rather accompanied to pursue its natural course, and so all it takes is to wait for the olives to ripe for few more weeks to create the most sinuous blending of tones, but always with character.
It is an Organic Extra Virgin Olive oil obtained from selected varieties: Leccino, Caninese, and Ascolana tenera, all grown on our farm, selected by us, harvested and straight away taken to the modern continuous cycle oil mill to be pressed within that same day, in order not to alter the organoleptic and nutritional values.
Straight after, the oil is filtered and stored in nitrogen-sealed steel containers at a temperature between 14 and 20 degrees.
It is very different from OSTRO due to its olfactory notes, reminiscent of fresh almond and green banana. Through the glass the oil reflects a bright emerald coloring. It extends at first on the tongue and then into the mouth reminding of bitter tones, but not intense enough to compromise the delicate flavors of sweet chilly with a spiced final enhancing paprika tones. The oil is well balanced and harmonious, suitable for dishes like; creamy vegetable soups, and fish recipes, and also for special handmade mayonnaise.
It is even ideal for drizzling over ice-cream.

It is an oil that tells us a lot about Tuscany, rough and hard lands to cultivate, where the hot, burning summer sun and the little rain gives slowly birth to the olives in the most extreme conditions.
Of a golden green outstanding color, its bouquet releases sensual fresh fragrances of aromatic herbals such as sage, rosemary and fern. Its flavoring evokes strong notes of artichoke, and aubergine. On its final aroma it leaves a surprising peppery sensation.
The oil is well balanced, and it combines perfectly well with grilled dishes, with roasts, and savory sauces.
