Tips and curiosities of the tomolo
Its name clearly indicates its origin in the town of Corato. For years, the Coratina olive was the main ingredient of 'blending', i.e. the technique of blending different flavours and fragrances to create the perfect oil, capable of giving consistency and resistance to the most fragile and light oils, due to the bitter and spicy taste of its oil. Today, however, it can rightly be considered the highest expression of the land of Apulia.

The characteristics of the Coratina variety
The Coratina cultivar is a typical Puglia olive, characterised by a high content of polyphenols, natural antioxidants that give the extra virgin olive oil a spicy and bitter taste. This olive variety needs a hot and dry climate to grow at its best and produce a high quality extra virgin olive oil. Organic extra virgin olive oil from the Coratina variety is particularly appreciated by consumers for its ability to retain its flavour and organoleptic characteristics even at high temperatures, thanks to its high stability.

Organic farming: the sustainable future of extra virgin olive oil
Organic olive cultivation is a method that preserves biodiversity and promotes environmental sustainability. It does not use chemicals that are harmful to the soil and the environment. Instead, it encourages the use of natural fertilisers such as compost and crop rotation. Organic farming also requires soil fertility management and wildlife conservation. These methods help maintain the natural balance of the ecosystem and promote healthy soil and plants. Known for its intense flavour profile, full-bodied taste and deep green colour, the Coratina cultivar is perfectly suited to organic cultivation, making it an excellent choice for the production of organic extra virgin olive oil.
