November News
The new season harvest of IL Molino's delicious organic Extra Virgin Olive Oils are packed and ready to be shipped from the farm. We expect landing in the next couple of weeks ready for the Christmas season.
The harvest continues at the farm right up to December when we expect the arrival of our favourite DOP. We cannot wait
'You can find out about the harvesting process here:
Olive harvest is carried out by hand or with mechanical tools to respect the plants and fruits. Nets are used under the trees to collect fallen olives without damaging them. On an organic farm, no pesticides or chemical fertilizers are used, to guarantee a natural and sustainable product.
The harvested olives are selected to remove leaves and impurities, then quickly taken to the mill to avoid oxidation and preserve the quality of the oil.
In the oil mill, the olives are pressed. For the pitted process, the stones are removed before crushing the pulp, creating a more delicate and aromatic oil resulting in the gorgeous DOP variety For the oils pressed with the stones, the entire olive, including the stones, is pressed, producing an oil with a stronger and fuller flavor.
For both pitted and stoned oil, the resulting paste is processed to extract the oil. This occurs through cold pressing or the use of centrifuges, maintaining the quality of the extra virgin oil. It is then stored in stainless steel containers protected from light and air to keep its organoleptic properties intact. Each phase is carried out carefully to respect the biological principles and preserve the qualities of the oil.......
We have now received our report from the secret shopper scheme run by Cambridge BID. Receiving a 95% score was very pleasing knowing that we are doing well in regards to our dealing with our clients.
We received a 5 star review from a new customer on Google which was very encouraging in so far as we know we are doing a good job !!
"Lovely stall with fabulous products. The proprietor is delightful. Give the oil. Taste and start enjoying the health benefits of olive oil that has come as fast as possible from the grove"

Why Organic EVOO ?
Benefits of EVOO
If you are searching for that special Olive Oil, looking at the label is important. Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is the highest quality with no more than 8 percent acidity and preferably from a single producer ensures that the oil has not been blended with often inferior oils. The designation DOP - Protected designation of Origin- would guarantee an oil of finest qualities as in IL Molino's Canenese Tuscia DOP. Simply the juice of the olive without any additional ingredients including heating.
So Olive Oil is a pure and natural food, a rarity as many of our foods tend to be processed in one form or another.
Regarded as one of the healthiest foods you can eat as evidenced by research into the Mediterranean diet.
The production and use of Olive Oil has been around for thousands of years with evidence of its use in Iran, Syria and Palestine before spreading to the Mediterranean basin. Not only as a food but because of its special qualities, its use stretches to religious ceremonies, in medicine as well as skincare.
Although the oil produced from olives is a fat - which tends to have a negative connotation - the oil from olives is one of the healthiest fats due to the presence of monounsaturated fats, polyphenols as well high levels of antioxidants which are proven to have great health benefits in reducing risk of heart disease, improving skin condition, brain function as well as having anti-inflammatory properties.
