Gianni Caligouri Affiorato Old World Hand Pressed Ev Olive Oil

Calogiuris flavourful extra virgin olive oil is made using a traditional, little-used method called affiorato. It is so rare, in fact, that Calogiuri is one of only three companies in the whole of Italy to use this time-consuming, artisan technique. To produce affiorato, the oil is first cold-pressed immediately after harvesting the olives which happens only once a year, in November and then left to rise to the surface on its own. It is then hand-collected in jugs to be bottled.
