The Green Gold of the Val di Noto: harvesting the Terre di San Lorenzo Extra Virgin Olive Oil

An authentic oil from Sicily

A product of excellence that comes from an area rich in history and centuries-old traditions, Terre di San Lorenzo Extra Virgin Olive Oil originates in the heart of the Val di Noto. Its olives, grown in the fields surrounding the Agua Green Country Resort, are processed using traditional methods and, through cold extraction techniques, guarantee an oil with an authentic flavour and extraordinary organoleptic properties.

Val di Noto: an area rich in resources

The territories of the Val di Noto combine architectural beauty and unspoilt landscapes. Here the territory, with its mild climate and fertile soil, is ideal for growing quality olives, giving Olio Terre di San Lorenzo its unique character.

The Mediterranean climate, characterised by hot summers and mild winters, favours the cultivation of olives and the production of a unique EVO oil. The mineral-rich soil and sun exposure also give the olives an intense aroma and unmistakable flavour.

The olive harvest: a quality process

The olives are harvested at the perfect time of ripeness, preserving their freshness and nutrients, and processed within hours. They then go directly to the oil mill, where modern technology is intertwined with oil-making tradition to obtain a pure oil, rich in aromas and with a strong character that enhances every nuance of flavour.

The oil milling process is cold and succeeds in preserving all the organoleptic and nutritional properties of the oil. The result is an extra virgin oil rich in polyphenols, natural antioxidants that, in addition to indicating a high quality oil, promote cardiovascular health and combat cellular ageing.
