The Giachi family has always given part of its olives to other oil mills, which then marketed them under their own label. The most rigorously selected selection of the harvest has always been reserved for their own products "Primolio", "Dolciolio", "Snocciolato" and "Colle del Giachi".

In 2002, the company decided to process and market the higher quality part of the olives that had previously been resold itself. Thus, the "Giolio" line was added, which stands out for its particularly good value and whose name is intended to remind us of its founder Giovanni. The Olio, with its pleasantly low acidity, is a high-quality accompaniment to a variety of dishes. Mild and smooth with grassy notes. SUPERIORE.DE

The Carte Noire is a very limited Ligurian drip oil, which is obtained after a special procedure. Only absolutely intact olives are used for this. After grinding them between granite stones, the paste is spread on mats. These are placed on top of each other, then the olive oil thus obtained runs down without pressure and is collected there.

The result is a mild oil not without certain rustic notes, with a slight sweetness and hints of spices, almonds, pine nuts, apple and vanilla. Excellent for salads, seasoning fresh cheeses, but also with white meat. SUPERIORE.DE

This olive oil is the pièce de résistance of the Giachi oil production. It is obtained from the Frantoio and Moraiolo varieties in the high hill zone of Chianti Classico with markedly calcareous soils. Here the olive tree produces very low yields and consequently yields a pithy oil with very low acidity. The characteristics of the oil can thus be preserved in the long term and a perfect balance between fullness of flavour and mildness is achieved. SUPERIORE.DE

The fruit for this oil is harvested manually in the first decade of November. Immediately after harvesting, cold pressing is carried out to preserve the fresh nuances of the fruit, which is not fully ripe. Before bottling, the oil is filtered through cotton wadding to separate it from the deposit of amniotic fluid which, over time, would affect the original quality.

This olive oil stands out for its extremely low acidity and excellent taste. It is a true speciality of the house of Giachi, for which they have received worldwide recognition. SUPERIORE.DE
