It has a slightly tannic and spicy aftertaste on the palate, along with a hint of bitterness that goes perfectly with vegetable dishes, soups, meats and pasta.

The Berio Method: a further guarantee of quality
This oil, like all Filippo Berio oils, is guaranteed by the Berio Method: the process that ensures authentic and good quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil due to rigorous controls at every stage of production, from the field to the bottle. The Method is based on the application of integrated cultivation and production techniques which fully respect the environment and the ecosystem, and on scrupulous controls at all stages of the production and selection process, transport to the mill and pressing of the olives. Only the best olives are used for pressing and this is strictly performed cold and in the shortest possible time, resulting in an oil with an unbeatable taste and excellent quality.
Bottles of Filippo Berio Extra Virgin Olive Oil are easily recognisable, even on supermarket shelves, thanks to the the special yellow collar on the bottle which lists the stages of the Method, certified by SGS, a company that certifies both product quality and environmental sustainability throughout the supply chain.
