The Cerasuola variety, cultivar, represents one of the most widespread cultivars throughout Sicily, typical in the north-western side of Sicily, in the provinces of Palermo and Trapani and in the south-western area of the island limited to the Sciacca area.
The Cerasuola cultivar produces a green-gold color, medium to intense, extra virgin olive oil with hints of fresh grass, artichoke, tomato and an aftertaste of thistle and wild chicory. The Cerasuola extra virgin olive oil is ideal for meat dishes and grilled vegetables and it excels with legumes soup, oily fish, salads and any dish of the Mediterranean diet.
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.
