Product Description We are passionate about our work and uphold the traditional artisanal methods passed down through generations in our small family business. Our grandfather's wisdom still rings true: the uniqueness of our olive oil stems from the plant, climate, soil, and the individual touch that never repeats itself. Each year, we produce a limited quantity of high-quality EVOO that is consistent in its excellence.
What sets our olive oil apart is our commitment to crafting it the same way our ancestors did for centuries. Our journey began in the quaint village of Chiaramonte Gulfi in Sicily, where we harvest olives by hand and process them in our own mill using cold extraction within hours to preserve flavor and nutrients. Our EVOO is made exclusively from hand-picked, partially ripe olives of the "Tonda Iblea" variety, unique to our region.
We take pride in our fully artisanal process, creating a clean food product with no additives or preservatives. By owning our mill, we ensure that the olives are milled promptly after harvest to maintain quality. Our early harvest practice, typically in the first three weeks of October, guarantees the freshest olives with the lowest acidity for a superior oil.
Every bottle of Zahara EVOO reflects the essence of our Sicilian heritage, making it an ideal gift for any occasion. Rich in polyphenols, vitamins, and healthy fats, our award-winning oil boasts a smoking point of over 375F and has been recognized by top Italian and international award bodies for its exceptional quality.
In the kitchen, Zahara pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including cooked and raw vegetables, Caprese salad, orange salad, legume soups, grilled meats, and fish. Our dedication to excellence and tradition shines through in every drop of our premium EVOO.
Oleificio Guccione, led by brothers Vito and Giuseppe Divita, embodies a legacy of respect for family history, love for the land, and a mission to preserve Sicilian traditions for future generations. Our olive trees, particularly the prized "Tonda Iblea" variety, thrive in the Hyblaean Mountains, yielding a distinctive oil with notes of tomato, herbs, thistle, and pepper.
With a commitment to excellence, sustainability, and tradition, Zahara EVOO represents the pinnacle of Sicilian olive oil production. Awarded for its superior quality and flavor, Zahara is a true masterpiece that captures the essence of Sicily in every bottle.
