Muraglia - Extra virgin olive oil - 2 - 500ml Bottle

Lotto consisting of 2 500 ml ceramic amphorae from the POP ART line, POLIPO and SARDINE, of extra virgin olive oil produced by FRANTOIO MURAGLIA, PUGLIA - ITALY.

Frantoio Muraglia was born in Andria, the capital of Puglian olive oil, five generations ago, but the patriarch of the family among springs counts 450. It is a majestic Coratina olive tree, an indigenous cultivar armed with polyphenols like few others among Italy’s 538 classified varieties. Our history as oil pressers begins from this green giant that dominates our countryside on the Murgia plateau, a spread of about 40 hectares of olive trees. We continue hand-picking the olives and cold-pressing in the ancient stone mill.

The amphorae are from the POP ART series and are named: POLIPO and SARDINE, just as the images depicted, from left to right, on each of them.
The POP ART collection amphorae, entirely handmade by Apulian artisans, are true design objects that bring you straight to the colors of the land and sea of Puglia. Colorful marine pop elements: vivid tones and matte chromes tailor polypi, squids, and fish that dart across the white ceramic, highlighting its purity and artisanal perfection; pastel streaks instead become shiny iridescences of the rainbow – Frantoio Muraglia’s distinctive iconography – that dive into the sea to personalize very colorful octopuses and then return to shore, color­ing the prickly pears with warmth.
