Description
The Palusci company produces oils in the heart of Abruzzo, on the Pianella hills, between the Adriatic Sea and the Majella National Park. In this area, dominated by the Dritta and Leccino varieties, Marina Palusci Uomo di Ferro oil is born: the strongest oil that can be obtained from the Dritta del Frantoio variety only. What we like most about this product, is its olive fruitiness, which is expressed with other very marked aromatic notes: from the characteristic scent of almond to the greener expression of chicory, rocket and the hull of the green walnut, you get a vigorous bitterness and a spiciness of the same intensity, confirming the harmony of the intense notes, just like the image of an iron man, fearless and energetic.
Marina Palusci:
Olive-Growers for generations – The passion of oil. For many centuries, our agricultural enterprise started the cultivation of olive trees in the village of Pianella (from 200 to 300 m above sea level), a small commune situated on the Hills between the Adriatic coast and the National Park of the Majella. Among all the regions of the “Abruzzes”, this zone is considered the most appropriate for the cultivation of the olive trees due to its geographical position. Writings of the period that goes back to 1155, the year when the first specialized olive-groves were planted in our country, describe the beginning of the clone selection of the «Cultivar Autoctona Dritta» (cultivation of the autochtone “Dritta”). Millions of centuries-old olive trees of our lands, which have safeguarded their most eminent aspect due to the meticulous work of many generations, are the token of the inseparable union of the argillaceous land and the “Dritta”. For many centuries, we have been cultivating more than 7 hectares of olive-groves in this heavenly environment where the majestic hills embrace the silvery olive trees disappearing in the horizon along the declivities. Within this environment, the Wisdom, the Skill and the Passion of the farmers like those of the oil Masters who repeat constantly the same gestures with Love and devotion, unite to the state-of-the-art technologies in order to obtain a product of an exceptional quality known by the connoisseurs as “ORO VERDE” (GREEN GOLD).
