Caring for the Olive Trees with Tenderness

At Olio Sasa, the care of the olive trees is done with attention and respect. We prioritize manual methods, minimizing the use of machines, in order to preserve the exceptional quality of the oil and allow it to develop harmoniously in a natural environment.

Our plantation is certified organic, a natural choice in this preserved setting. Working in symbiosis with nature is essential, and it rewards us with harvests of incomparable purity.

The olive trees are surrounded by lush biodiversity. We perform one or two annual prunings of the weeds, leaving them on site to form a natural mulch. This organic carpet retains moisture, protects the soil, and stimulates the activity of microorganisms, the true guardians of fertility. A perfect balance for strong olive trees and exceptional olive oil.

We are committed to preserving the environment and the quality of our products. No chemical fertilizers are used in our fields. We exclusively use organic and natural fertilizers to ensure healthy cultivation in harmony with nature.

Every drop of our oil reflects the love and care given to our olive trees. The olives are hand-picked to preserve their integrity, then cold-pressed within 3 hours of harvesting. This quick and meticulous process retains all the natural properties and flavors of the olives.

After pressing, the oil undergoes a delicate filtration and rests for 30 days for natural decanting. The result? A first cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil of exceptional purity and quality.

The olive tree is a symbol of peace and fidelity; it provides both shade and fruit, and its longevity defies the centuries.
