How to recognize extra virgin olive oil? The best way to tell if extra virgin
In the 2022/2023 oil campaign, 450 bottles of extra virgin olive oil were produced with a special format, made so also by its laser-engraved wooden label, a dedication that the sons Nicola and Lorenzo Cancila wanted to make to their mother, Marianna.
This is an extra virgin olive oil made from two olive cultivars:
– La Crastu, native to the Madonie park.
– The Nocellara del Belice, Sicilian excellence, the only one to have two awards
PDO in Europe.
Extra virgin olive oil with a green color and a decidedly intense fruitiness, with important notes of bitter and spicy well expressed and balanced2
Where and how was Olio Cancila born?
The Cancila farm is located in Sicily, in Castelbuono (PA), in the heart of the Madonie Natural Park.
The ten hectares of land were used for animal husbandry until 2005. The animals that fed on the crops prevented the healthy growth of the existing centuries-old plants. In 2006, after his retirement, our father Vincenzo Cancila decided to devote his work, his experience and his passion entirely to a long and demanding pruning to allow his trees to flourish.
The constant commitment in 2013 was rewarded with a real production and a new fruit: Olio Cancila, born from the passion for the search for a high quality extra virgin olive oil.
In 2015 some health problems stopped our father Vincenzo, so the sons Nicola and Lorenzo and his wife Maria Anna Macaluso began to personally direct and follow with love and passion all the stages of production and sale of the products of their farm. .
Today our product is highly appreciated and the distribution network mainly covers Sicily, Veneto and Trentino-Alto Adige and is expanding to the rest of Italy and Europe.
The production of Olio Cancila comes from the harvest of olives from Nerba, Crastu and Nocellara del Belice cultivars. The first two are a real pride for the Madonie Natural Park as they are two indigenous cultivars. This is why we like to say that ours is a Madonie DOC extra virgin olive oil. The Nocellara del Belice originally from Trapani, on the other hand, is the only Italian cultivar to have two PDO awards, this creates the perfect synthesis for an authentic Sicilian extra virgin olive oil.
Visually, Olio Cancila has a yellow / green color. On the nose, its scent is medium fruity and on the palate, its taste is slightly bitter and spicy with a sweet aftertaste. The cold extraction of our extra virgin olive oil ensures that the organoleptic, nutritional and physical properties remain unaltered: in fact, mineral salts, vitamins and polyphenols are preserved despite the extraction from the fruit. Polyphenols are antioxidant substances capable of guaranteeing a real therapeutic action for humans and the stability of an oil. They also perform other functions, including antibacterial, antiviral and anti-inflammatory action.
