olive oil and local products

The hills of Torre a Cona have always produced an extra-virgin oil with an intense and refined flavour. The olive trees on the estate total about 5,000, grown using both traditional and specialised olive grove techniques. Three types of olives are grown here: Moraiolo, Frantoio and Leccino.

Pruning is carried out every year to obtain greater and more constant yields. All harvesting is performed completely by hand.
The olives are taken to the mill with the greatest care to ensure that the fruit is not bruised. The olives are transported in small crates piled on top of one another, with holes pierced in the crate sides to permit constant air flow. The olives are placed in layers of only 10-15 centimetres, and never remain more than a few hours before they are ground at the mill on the estate using granite millstones.

"molino d'orlando"
Superior quality, extra-virgin olive oil.

Molino d'Orlando oil is produced by cold-pressing three varieties of specially selected olives (Frantoio, Moraiolo and Leccino).
The olives are hand-harvested at just the perfect level of ripeness from our 5,000 olive trees planted in an area that is particularly suitable because of the climate, altitude and soil conditions. The harvest is then pressed in the estate's traditional oil mill using granite millstones.

Our oil is renowned for its fragrance, aroma, fruity flavour and deep green colour, creating a harmony that is unique.
