Suggestions
Perfect as an aperitif, the olives are a basis ingredient of the Ligurian cuisine: thanks to their delicacy, they add flavor without overpowering with an excess of salt. The olive oil in which they are immersed is also a delicious dressing, suitable for many uses: try it with tomato and homemade bread or as a sauce for pasta with the addition of a bit of grated pecorino cheese

Selected because

An ancient olive mill nestled in one of the many sun-drenched villages of Liguria, overlooking the sea, where generations of local people have cultivated olive trees on rugged terrain in which earth and stone merge, and where the olive harvest is still carried out entirely by hand. This is the story of Frantoio Bianco. For five generations, this artisan producer has been making extra virgin olive oil and traditional preserves using exclusively Taggiasca olives grown in its own groves. The olive trees thrive on the characteristic dry-stone terraces, just 18 kilometres from the sea, where the Bruna family cultivates more than 12,000 trees. Around half of the groves are certified organic, while the remainder are currently undergoing organic conversion.
