HOT ! Al Frantoio di Aldo Armato Ligurian Extra Virgin Olive Oil Taggiasca 33.8 fl oz (1 Lt)

Al Frantoio di Aldo Armato Ligurian Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a traditional Italian olive oil made exclusively from Taggiasca olives grown in ancient groves in the hills above Alassio in Liguria, along the Italian Riviera. Taggiasca olives are one of Italy’s most prized olive varieties and are known for producing delicate, buttery, and elegant olive oils with low acidity and a smooth, sweet almond finish.

The Armato family has produced olive oil for generations, and their oil is still made using traditional stone milling. Large stone wheels slowly crush the olives, processing the olive flesh while leaving the pits intact, which helps preserve the oil’s delicate flavor and prevents bitterness. The olive paste is then pressed to extract the oil, producing a first cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil using traditional Ligurian methods.

This oil is often lightly unfiltered and has a golden color with a soft, fruity aroma and notes of almond, pine nut, fresh herbs, and mild olive fruit. Compared to Tuscan oils, which are bold and peppery, Ligurian Taggiasca olive oil is known for being softer, sweeter, and more delicate.

Because of its delicate and elegant flavor, this olive oil is ideal for finishing dishes rather than heavy cooking.

This olive oil works especially well with:

• Fish and seafood• Salads• Vegetables• Pesto• Chicken• Fresh cheeses• Burrata and mozzarella• Bruschetta• Focaccia• Minestrone• Risotto• Pasta with light sauces• Drizzled over finished dishes

Delicate, buttery, and elegant, Aldo Armato Taggiasca Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a classic Ligurian olive oil made from one of Italy’s most prized olive varieties using traditional stone milling and cold pressing, resulting in a smooth, refined oil perfect for seafood, vegetables, pesto, and finishing dishes.
