The taste of Sicily in an oil
Tenuta Chiaramonte, the Sicilian olive oil company has a strong attachment to its roots, it's the passion that animates the production. The agricultural culture of Sicily has a millenary tradition of olive oil production, started by Greek settlers and then carried on by the Arabs.
The estate is located in the sunny countryside of Ragusa, among hills that slope toward the sea and dry stone walls that have become a World Heritage Site. Tenuta Chiaramonte produces Sicilian extra virgin olive oils, including two PDO and one PGI, which excel in high quality and characteristics that have also been recognized and awarded in prestigious international competitions.
The oils, in their four versions, are bottled with very special artistic labels, which feature reproductions of the typical masks of Ragusa Baroque. Here's the four versions:
