Outlet Medium Fruity Extra Virgin Olive Oil Box, 2L Ingredients Brands|Oil, Vinegar & Dressings

Galantino’s Medium Fruity Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a box is where function meets finesse. The oil is mild in flavour and cold-pressed from perfectly ripe Coratina and Ogliarola olives from ancient Puglian groves.  

The attractive box looks like a wrapped present and comes complete with a tap, so you can syphon off just as much as you need. The internal bag retracts to keep air out, so the fine quality of the oil is maintained.

Use it for barbecued Mediterranean vegetables or to confit shallots or whole garlic cloves. Its mild flavour makes it the perfect base for aïoli or to make roast potatoes.

About Galantino

The Galantino family business was started in 1926, when Vito Galantino, an extra virgin olive oil taster, transformed a nineteenth century mill house into an olive mill, with a dream to make a world-class product.

Now run by the third generation, the Galantino family embraces ancient craftsmanship with modern innovation; traditional stone grinders are used alongside cold-extraction centrifugation systems. In 1990, Vito’s son, Dr Michele Galantino, produced the company’s first flavoured oils after he rediscovered the ancient technique of crushing the olives together with fresh citrus, herbs, or chillies, resulting in delicious, natural flavours, without any added essences.

Galantino is based in the mediaeval town of Bisceglie, Puglia – the region that produces more olives than any other in the world. Perched on the Adriatic coast and steeped in history, Galantino uses olives from the family’s 47-hectare “La Fenice” estate and from 2000 trusted growers. “La Fenice” is home to ancient olive groves of over 15,000 Ogliarola and Coratina trees: a stunning visual feast spanning as far as the eye can see.

The olives are harvested between October and December, when they are at their perfect stage of ripeness, which is judged using the time-honoured technique of hand-shaking branches, then gently catching any falling fruit in canvas “hammocks”.

This dedication to meticulous husbandry, with careful pruning, drip-irrigation and ultra-modern pest control detection, reduces the use of pesticides to an absolute minimum.

All their olives are carefully selected and washed before they are crushed on traditional stone mills.
