The idea
Support. This is the concept that hovers around the Agricultural Holding "Il Bordone" and the "Vastuni" oil. Two different names have the same meaning: support stick used by pilgrims in the first case, walking stick in the Sicilian dialect in the second.
A clear path, enhancing the quality of Made in Italy characterized by know-how, combining ancient traditions with today's knowledge.
Key values: tradition, authenticity, culture, control of production processes.
The olive
The harvest, done by hand according to ancient tradition, is done prematurely, giving up quantity in favor of quality. In this first phase, the drupes are carefully selected. The research of purity and integrity, the exaltation of organoleptic properties and the preservation of aromas and flavours are our focus.
Once harvested, the olives are pressed within a maximum of 6 hours, cold and exclusively through mechanical procedures.
Subsequently, in order not to alter the organoleptic properties, the product will be stored in dark environments inside steel tanks away from oxygen and other elements that could alter its quality.
"Vastuni" olive oil
Scents of the land where he was born, cut grass, green apple, tomato leaf. Our organically certified oil has a spicy and bitter taste, balanced by a delicate sweet sensation. The high concentration of polyphenols make it a healthy and beneficial element for health.
"Vastuni" is the exaltation of raw cooking, but it also easily adapts to the preparation of some of the most renowned pastry delicacies.
The label is essential and recognizable, a reference to the oil and at the same time to the company, to the project behind it, to the good Italian taste that has always distinguished us.
