The basil seasoning Cappuccini is born from the harmonious union between extra virgin olive oil and the unmistakable scent of fresh basil, in a perfect balance of taste and naturalness. Produced with the same care and attention that distinguishes every processing of the Cappuccini company, this seasoning represents a tribute to Mediterranean tradition and its most authentic aromas.
The olives used belong to the Raggiola, Leccino, Maurino, and Picholine varieties, grown on predominantly calcareous soils with a clay matrix, located about 400 meters above sea level. This environment, characterized by perfect drainage capacity, promotes the growth of vigorous plants and fruits rich in aromatic substances. The harvest, carried out from the first days of October with the help of electric shakers, guarantees the freshness and integrity of the drupes, which are brought to the mill within a few hours.
The extraction takes place cold, with a careful and natural process: the olives are crushed together with fresh basil, allowing the essential oils of the leaves to blend with the oily component of the fruit. The processing, carried out at a temperature never exceeding 26°C, ensures the preservation of all the original aromas and herbal notes. After double centrifugation, the oil is filtered and stored in nitrogen-saturated steel tanks, at controlled temperature, to preserve its fragrance and quality over time.
The result is a seasoning with a bright green color and an intense aroma of freshly picked basil, with delicate hints of fresh olive and cut grass. In taste, the harmony between the softness of the oil and the aromatic freshness of the basil offers a balanced and pleasantly lingering experience.
Cappuccini Basilico is ideal for enhancing simple and genuine dishes: a drizzle raw on caprese, bruschetta, fresh pasta, or grilled vegetables transforms every preparation into a sensory journey into the heart of Italian cuisine.
A refined and natural seasoning, designed for those who love authentic flavors and uncompromising quality.
