Description
Divina Pitted Frescatrano Olives are a chef favorite, celebrated for their vibrant, grass-green color and exceptionally mild, buttery flavor. Often compared to the famous Castelvetrano, these olives are harvested in Greece and processed using a natural fermentation method that preserves their firm, crunchy texture and fresh, fruit-forward profile. Already pitted for convenience, they offer a clean, sweet finish without the heavy brine or bitterness found in traditional olives.
