The DeCarlo family have been making olive oil since the 17th century. They led the industry with their focus on quality, which had them shift from presses to the centrifuge well ahead of the pack. There are 3 generations involved now. Francesco and Martina, their parents and their children. The children bring their classmates to the groves to see how olive oil is made. A fine example all round.

The Arcamone Estate is one of the DeCarlo family’s ‘historic’ farms and has been an organic farm since 1990. The local microclimate has made it possible to restore natural balance to the production cycle of the Coratina variety grown here, without the need for any chemical substances. This is a strong oil ideal with grilled vegetables & mushrooms, hearty soups, and tomato salads.
