extra virgin olive oil "pinzimolio", 500ml

High-quality Cuvee Extra Virgin Olive Oil

The Calvi family has been in the olive business for four generations – uniting cultivation, production and trade under one roof. The prestigious house in Liguria produces nothing but the finest oils.

The same is true of its "Prinzimolio" extra virgin olive oil, named after a typical Ligurian appetizer.

This olive oil is a special blend of two different varieties of olives. Taggiasca and Ogliarola olives are harvested early and bring a slight spiciness and bitterness to the mixture.

This makes Calvi’s moderately fruity Pinzimolio a special olive oil that’s perfect for cold dishes. This olive oil works particularly well in a vegan emulsion with vinegar, salt and pepper. Use as a dip for vegetables and bread and you’ve got an excellent starter or a small snack. Perfect for dressings and cold marinades too, this ingenious vegan oil is available now for home delivery at Velivery.

Family, identity, commitment and leisure are all characteristics that distinguish OLIO CALVI.

In Oneglia, a district of Imperia in Liguria, lies Villa Calvi – still the economic centre of this fourth generation of olive growers and traders to this day.

“Our father was a very conscientious man with a real passion for olive oil. He had great respect for his customers and by that we don’t mean shops or anything like that, but the actual connoisseurs of his oil in the kitchen and at the table.” That’s how brothers Gianni and Luca Calvi explain the philosophy of the family business. It’s vital that these values live on through the next generation.
