WHY IT WORKS
-
First Cold Pressing: Extracted solely by mechanical means at low temperatures to preserve the oil's natural chemical structure and rich flavor profile.
-
Balanced Sensory Profile: Offers a mild to medium intensity that enhances food without overpowering delicate ingredients like seafood or fresh greens.
-
High Nutritional Value: Rich in polyphenols and Vitamin E, providing the heart-healthy benefits associated with authentic extra virgin olive oil.
-
Low Acidity: Carefully monitored production ensures a low free-fatty-acid content, which is the hallmark of a high-quality "Extra Virgin" grade.
-
Versatile 3 L Volume: The larger format provides excellent value for high-volume kitchens while the tin packaging protects the oil from light degradation.
-
High Smoke Point for EVOO: While best for finishing, its purity allows for light pan-searing and sautéing at temperatures up to 190°C.
USE CASES
-
High-End Bistros: Used as a signature dipping oil for artisanal breads, often paired with balsamic vinegar and fresh herbs.
-
Modern Salad Stations: Performs exceptionally well in house-made vinaigrettes, emulsifying beautifully with citrus or vinegars for a smooth finish.
-
Mediterranean Grills: Solves the problem of dry meats and vegetables by acting as a nutrient-dense finishing glaze for grilled chicken, fish, or eggplant.
-
Artisan Pizzerias: Ideal for drizzling over fresh out-of-the-oven pizzas to add a final layer of richness and aromatic complexity.

FAQ
Is this oil suitable for deep frying? No. Extra Virgin Olive Oil has a lower smoke point than refined oils. For deep frying, we recommend a high-heat oil like Saporito Canola Oil.
How should I store this 3 L tin? Keep the tin in a cool, dark place away from the stove or direct sunlight. The metal container is excellent for blocking light, but heat will still degrade the oil's flavor over time.
Does this oil have a strong peppery bite? Spoleto is known for its balance; while it has a characteristic light peppery finish, it is generally smoother and more versatile than intensely robust "early harvest" oils.
Is Spoleto Extra Virgin Olive Oil gluten-free and vegan? Yes, it is a 100% plant-based fruit oil and is naturally gluten-free, vegan, and keto-friendly.
What does "Cold Pressed" actually mean? It means the oil was extracted at a temperature below 27°C. This ensures the flavor, aroma, and nutritional enzymes of the olives are not destroyed by heat.
