Why we love it
Too often extra virgin olive oil is seen as one, without any consideration on the producer or the provenance or the olive variety, assuming they all taste the same: this assumption could not be more wrong.
Our map list all Italian native olive varieties cultivated across Italy. Extra virgin olive oil can be as fascinating as wine when looked at properly, when taking into account region, variety and producer, with each oil having its own characteristics, from light and delicate to rich, and each oil and variety better suited for a specific food.
This Italian native olive varieties map is perfect for people who love cooking and wants to know more about the provenance of the ingredients, in this case Italian extra virgin olive oil. The map is available as a PDF or a poster measuring 61x91cm. If ordering the PDF version, the file has a high resolution and can be printed in any size.
