Ligurian Taggiasca Extra Virgin Olive Oil - High Polyphenol - DOP Certified - Fresh Cold Pressed in Italy

From the brand Family-Owned Olive Mill, ROI has been perfecting Olive products for four generations, since 1900, offering a wide variety of the best possible products. We strive to highlight high-quality Italian and Taggiasca olives with our products, from oils to sauces and the most special creations.

The history of the Roi family begins in 1900 when Giuseppe, the great-grandfather "Pepin u Roi", built the first oil mill using the wood and stones of our valley. It is the beginning of a long journey that reaches today, up to Paolo, who with his father spends all his time and passion in the family oil mill.

What makes our products unique? 42 hectares of olive groves in the Argentina valley overlooking the Mediterranean sea, gives our oils unique characteristics linked to the land. Olives have been farmed here since Roman times. Our oil derives exclusively from the first cold pressing of the olives. We use the newest technology without heating the paste or adding hot water, to give our EVOO greater bio nutrition, organoleptic superiority, and better preservation.

Producing Ligurian quality oil is an art, but much of the merit is attributed to the variety of plants in the territory that have low acidity, a fruity aroma, and a sweet sensation. This enhances the oil without being intrusive.

Roi is a small family-owned EVOO producer that has been operating for four generations. The olive grove and the flavor of the olives are influenced by the surrounding Mediterranean woodland and chestnut trees, the sea and wild herbs. The olive mill is composed of the traditional mill with a granite millstone and two presses, as well as a newly designed mill with a continuous cycle and cold extraction.

This estate is located in one of the most unique corners of Italy. Olive trees grow on terraced land in very steep hills and cliffs overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. The climate and sea influence the oil's taste and aroma. Monocultivar Taggiasca is obtained from the first cold pressing, using granite millstone.

The olives come exclusively from selected and certified suppliers, who attest that the origin of the raw material is Italian (100% Ligurian) and Cultivar Taggiasca. The Imperia Chamber of Commerce samples, analyzes, and evaluates the oil, and it is certified as FOE. The oil is also BIO recognized and approved by the FDA.
