The PDO zone “Aprutino-Pescara” is a warranty for top quality Olive Oil. The strict requirements on the organoleptic qualities of the PDO “Aprutino-Pescara” ensure a particular high standard of quality olive oil with a very low degree of acidity,. We guaranteed that the olives come from a limited geographical area where the different varieties of high quality trees are known as “Dritta”, “Leccino”, and “Toccolana”. The territory of Moscufo is an essential part of the PDO area, the first Italian region which in 1996 received recognition. Our PDO olive Oil comes from only one type, (monovariety oil), the high quality “Dritta” variety, that produces a special flavored oil, a hint of fruit with a subtle soft spicy aftertaste and has a wonderful fresh perfume and a golden yellow-green color. The bottles are numbered and the oil is yearly controlled by an authorized inspection commission.
