Affiorato Delicate Fruity

It is obtained using the ancient affioramento method, which involves hand-skimming a very small percentage of oil (about 2–3%) that naturally forms on the olive paste before pressing. Affiorato oil, not subjected to any extraction force, has a full-bodied character, in perfect harmony between aroma and taste.
