The Biancolilla cultivar is considered one of the oldest Italian varieties, cultivars, and included amongst the native Sicilian cultivars (it is believed to originate from the Caltabellotta area, in the province of Agrigento).
The Biancolilla cultivar is highly appreciated, it has a light green color with light shades of straw yellow and it is a delicate oil, with a light fruitiness of green olives with herbaceous hints and an aftertaste of fresh almond and light notes of artichoke.
Due to its delicate taste, the Biancolilla monocultivar is ideal for raw seasoning and for fish or vegetable dishes.
The artisan who made it
The Azienda Agricola Terrecosta is a story of Sicilian passion handed down for four generations that started in the 1950s, just after the second world war, with an olive mill and 11 hectares of land located in Sciacca at about 200 meters above sea level. Azienda Agricola Terrecosta is the story of a Sicilian family.
The Azienda Agricola Terrecosta is not only centuries-old olives trees made of native Sicilian cultivars from which they produce their extra virgin olive oils but plenty of other crops, from the famous Sicilian blood oranges to vegetables, from lemons to artichokes, where everything is cultivated following organic principles.
