Extra Virgin Olive Oil
The Badia di Morrona extra-virgin olive oil is the fruit of a selection of typical Tuscan olive varieties (Frantoio, Moraiolo, and Leccino), of a minimum lapse of time between picking and milling, and of a careful control of temperatures during the working of the fruit. The very high quality level achieved is expensive, production costs are high, but a true extra-virgin olive oil can only be produced with these criteria.
