Our mission is to produce excellent extra virgin olive oil<\/b>, obtained from distinctive centennial olive groves \"protected<\/b>\" by the famous \"dry stone walls<\/b>\" of the Iblei region. These walls, erected in the past to delineate the plots of the plateaus, are an integral part of our agricultural heritage.<\/p>

Our mills are situated in a unique and laborious landscape, where evergreen olive trees blend with ancient carob trees, charming stone rural houses<\/b>, farmsteads with spacious courtyards known as \"bagghiu<\/b>,\" and pristine quarries<\/b>. These features outline a mountainous territory steeped in authenticity, reflecting our dedication to preserving traditions and love for the land.<\/p>

For generations, our family has been committed to the production of extra virgin olive oil<\/b>, combining a passion for olive cultivation with expertise in the art of milling. Frantoi Covato<\/b> embodies Sicilian excellence, offering a unique product that encapsulates the history of our territory and the authentic taste of its olives.<\/p>

We are proud to share with you the fruit of our labor, extra virgin olive oil<\/b> that encapsulates the essence of the Iblei Mountains<\/b> and the passion of a family devoted to quality production.

In the heart of Sicily, precisely on the picturesque Iblei Mountains<\/b> in San Giacomo<\/b>, olive varieties such as Tonda Iblea<\/b>, Moresca<\/b>, and Verdesi<\/b> come together to create a unique gastronomic treasure. From these olives, a PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) oil is born, Monti Iblei, expertly produced in the Frantoi Covato<\/b>, recognized for its intense fruity flavor and a spicy aftertaste that enhances every dish.<\/p>

The extra virgin olive oil from Frantoi Covato<\/b> is a true jewel of the Mediterranean diet. Rich in vitamins, polyphenols, and antioxidants, this oil promotes the optimal preservation of its sensory properties and exerts a dual protective and beneficial action in our organism.<\/p>

Polyphenols, Full-bodied Flavor, Sustainability: The Pillars of Our Oil<\/b><\/p>

In the extraction process at Frantoi Covato<\/b>, extra virgin olive oil is obtained through cold pressing, using cutting-edge technological facilities that make production sustainable. Without the addition of water during the processing phases, the oil is more full-bodied, aromatic, and rich in polyphenols. The company adopts an innovative continuous production system with a proto-reactor<\/b>, a rarity in Italy, which allows the transformation into olive oil while preventing the oxidation of the paste.<\/p>

At Frantoi Covato<\/b>, the passion for quality merges with innovation, creating an oil that not only delights the palate but also respects the environment and preserves the natural characteristics of the olives from the Iblei Mountains. A constant commitment to excellence, transformed into every drop of our extraordinary extra virgin olive oil.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
