From the rich, sun drenched valley of Italy's southeast region of Apulia, comes the award-winning Cinque Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil. At the world-renowned Olio Beato Mill, five generations of the Rutigliano family have carried on the ancient art of creating artisan products. Made exclusively with Coratina and Ogliarola olives from the Olio Beato groves in Bitetto, this densely rich, emerald green oil with golden hues provides a moderate fruitiness and peppery finish that makes for the perfect finishing olive oil.Using traditional methods, the olives are hand picked, checked and sorted, then immediately milled and cold-extracted to preserve the olives' natural essence and healthful qualities. The result is fruit forward, rich oil with low acidity and peppery finish. Use Cinque in your everyday cooking, as a dressing or finishing oil on vegetables, fish, pasta, risotto, salad, and soup. This exceptional product is made possible by the collaboration of the Rutigliano and Scipioni families.
Puglia (Apulia) stretches down the heel of the boot, making it a land somewhat apart from the rest of Italy. This area is often overlooked by tourists although it is steeped in ancient history. The region of Puglia is a land of red earth with twisted olive trees whose lineage stretches back centuries, in some cases even millennia, in this traditional heartland of olive oil. Providing 40 percent of the nation’s product, with over 60 million trees in the region (one for every person in Italy), olive oil is a tradition that inspires more Pugliese pride than any other, and with reason Agriculture is the most important sector, and much olive oil is produced. Puglia produces more olive oil than any other single region but most goes into the mass-produced oils rather than the estate bottled, high quality oils you find with Cinque Organic.
