Production begins with the harvest of the largest and most pulpy olives of the Salella variety, which have not yet reached maturity. They are crushed with a stone, the core is removed and immersed in water for a few days, changing the water in the morning and in the evening. Then they are put in a brine with water, salt, bay leaves and wild fennel and left to rest for a few days.
Before final packaging, the olives are gently pressed to release the water and then placed in glass jars with extra virgin olive oil, oregano and chilli, always keeping them firmly pressed so that they do not absorb an excessive amount of oil. The product represents an excellence of the territory certified 100% Made in Italy.

A bit of history
In the first half of the nineteenth century, the great-grandfather, lawyer Felice Bianchi, married Delfina Di Marco, an orphan from a family of landowners. Felice Bianchi thus began to cultivate his wife's lands with the help of sharecroppers and agricultural laborers, planting olive trees and white figs from the Cilento region. Subsequently, due to the world conflict and mass emigration, many lands remained uncultivated and were even sold. It was in the mid-nineties when their son Osvaldo decided to restructure the company, primarily transforming the olive groves from extensive to intensive cultivation, adapting it to the needs of a modern enterprise.
