Goccia di Sole
A quality selection of oilve oils and olives from our newest Italian supplier. Literally translated as “drop of the sun” Goccia di Sole was founded in 1963 by 12 olive growers in the Puglian countryside town of Molfetta, southern Italy. Initially operating as a co-operative oil mill, the growers were united in their respect for the land and their passion for good quality olive oil. Goccia di Sole olive oils have Denomination of Origin Protection.
The olives are hand picked, and pressed within 24-48 hours. The oil is produced from two typical local olive varieties: Coratina, which produces a rich, green oil that is fruity and full bodied, and Ogliarola barese, which produces a yellow gold oil, more refined in flavour. Goccia di Sole blend the two different varieties to produce a soft gold-green oil; fragrant, lightly spiced and with an almond aftertaste.
There are two varieties of olive oil available. Etichetta is creamy and grassy with a little prickly pepper on the finish. Goccia di Sole is velvety with hints of green tomatoes and fresh grass. The Goccia di Sole olives are large, firm and meaty, unpitted and packed in brine.
