The oil

One product, cared for from tree to bottle

We have chosen to focus on one thing only: extra virgin olive oil from our own trees. We pick the olives in autumn and take them to the mill, for an oil with a fresh aroma and an intense flavour.

Right after milling it is also available as olio novello, the new-season oil: greener, bolder and pleasantly peppery. It is only available for a few weeks after the harvest.

The olive grove

Reclaimed land, farmed with care

Our olive trees grow in the hills around Melissa, in the province of Crotone. When we started in 2022, much of this land had been left uncultivated for years.

How we work

  • We use no glyphosate or chemical weedkillers.
  • We work to regenerate the soil and rely on its natural fertility.
  • We produce little, so we can follow every step closely.

Testimonials

“You can see the owner’s passion straight away. What impressed me most was the oil: fragrant, intense and just peppery enough.”

About us

Starting again, back home

Daniele and Maria Cristina lived and worked abroad for many years, he as a project manager and she as a university researcher. Then they decided to return to the Calabrian hills and bring neglected land back to life.

Bioagriofficinalis was founded in Melissa in spring 2022. Since then we have been restoring the soil, caring for the olive trees and learning, season after season, what it takes to make good oil.

What is olio novello?

It is freshly milled oil, sold straight after the harvest. It is greener in colour, with a more intense, peppery taste, and is only available for a few weeks a year.
