Pitted Nocellara del Belice

The Nocellara del Belice olives are of exceptional quality, and can be considered the most sought-after olive in the world. The climactic characteristics of this land create excellent table olives (those ready for consumption, which are far superior than those grown solely for oil production). They are fleshy in feel, and with a light aromatic taste that is truly unforgettable. The olive plants are cultivated in their characteristic pots, the maximum yield per hectare cannot surpass 70 kg (154 lbs.), and the olives must be worked within 24 hours from when they are picked. This goes to show that the production of these types of olives is centred around quality rather than quantity. The Nocellara Olive can be used in numerous ways, although the full essence of their flavour can be tasted raw: in a salad, on a bruschetta o making them into a dip. But their taste ennobles all sorts of cooked foods: from sauces to meat dishes. They are ideal for clients that are searching for both quality and attention to detail. And whether one prefers it shaken or stirred, what would a Martini be without its traditional olive? One doesn't have to be a spy to find out that the Miccio's Noceralla del Belice pitted green olives are the missing ingredient to your gin and vermouth.
