Delicato is a single-variety extra virgin olive oil from the Premium range of the family-run Fratelli Carbone olive mill. It is one of their milder oils, intended to complement dishes with delicate flavors.

It is made from early-harvested olives of a single variety, selected according to the quality of each year’s harvest. The olives are processed within hours of picking, with extraction carried out at controlled temperatures. The oil is immediately filtered to remove residual water and pulp, then stored in tanks under an inert gas atmosphere until bottling to preserve its freshness and aromatic profile.

It offers aromas of freshly cut grass, green apple, and fresh almond, with a smooth, harmonious palate and gentle bitterness and pepperiness. Recommended as a finishing oil for fish, seafood, white meat, vegetables, and salads, it also pairs well with mozzarella, burrata, and eggs. It can be enjoyed simply drizzled over fresh bread, allowing its aromas to stand out.
