LECCINO HIGH QUALITY EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
Hand-harvested from gorgeous Leccino trees and rigorously cold-pressed within mere hours of being harvested, our Certified Organic Leccino is an exquisite example of its variety. Olive Oil & Beyond is proud supporting artisan producers. Leccino is a one of the most rustic Italian varieties. It is primary olive cultivar all over Italy, (Umbria ,Tuscany) and spread throughout much of the world thanks to its adaptability. It is believed to have originated in Tuscany.

FLAVOR PROFILES:
Our Italian Leccino is collected green so the oil is very aromatic. It has greenish and golden color to eyes. Its flavor is sweet and grassy with hints of almond. It has a fruity aftertaste and leaves a polite, peppery sensation after swallowing.

PAIRING SUGGESTIONS:
Has a high level concentration of important antioxidants (such as Poly Phenol) which makes it a valuable nutritional supplement, in addition to being a delicious extra virgin olive oil. Pair it with our premium aged Pear, Black Currant or Champagne Balsamic vinegar for a terrific salad dressing or dip for bread. When oil is as nutritious as this one, it is more than a condiment for your food--it is an ingredient!

Organic is much more than merely a label or a certification. Organic stands for quality and conviction-- for the responsible use of nature's resources.
