The Harmonious Signature of the Master Presser
True gastronomy is all about balance, and that is precisely what this Olio Extravergine di Oliva embodies. Whilst a single-varietal oil seeks out the unique, pronounced extremes of a single olive variety, this classic extra virgin olive oil is, in fact, a superb blend. To create it, the Tiso family selects and combines the finest organic olive varieties from the Campania region. The result is an oil that does not overpower, but elegantly enhances every ingredient on your plate.
In the glass, the oil displays a beautiful, clear golden-yellow colour with vibrant green hues. The bouquet is refined, inviting and softly fruity, with subtle aromas of ripe olives, freshly chopped herbs and a gentle hint of almonds.
On the palate, this blend stands out for its silky-smooth, rounded texture. The bitterness and spiciness are perfectly interwoven to form a harmonious whole, with a mild, elegant finish. This makes it the ultimate all-rounder in the kitchen: full of character enough to be enjoyed on its own, yet subtle enough to allow the flavours of delicate fish dishes, mild cheeses and fresh salads to shine through.
Culinary Gastronomy: The Perfect Pairing
Thanks to its perfectly balanced and approachable character, this extra virgin olive oil blend is a versatile staple in the kitchen. Ideal for:
Classic Salads & Carpaccio: Gives dressings a rich, velvety texture.
Fish, Poultry & White Meat: A subtle accompaniment that enhances rather than masks the delicate flavours.
Pasta & Risotto: Perfect for drizzling over Spaghetti al Pomodoro or a creamy vegetable risotto just before serving.
Dipper with bread: Irresistible with a pinch of sea salt and artisan sourdough bread.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between this Extra Virgin Blend and the Monovarietal Ravece?
The Monovarietale Ravece is made from 100% single-variety olives and has a very intense, distinctively green and tangy character (green tomato/artichoke). This extra virgin olive oil is a ‘blend’, a harmonious composition of several traditional olive varieties. The Monovarietale is best used specifically as a powerful flavouring for robust dishes, whilst this blend is the perfect, more subtle all-rounder for everyday use with salads, fish, pasta and bread.
Can I also use this extra virgin olive oil for cooking?
Yes, this oil is ideal for both cold dishes and gentle cooking at low to medium heat. It’s brilliant for braising vegetables, creating a delicate pasta sauce or cooking fish over a low to medium heat. However, it’s best not to use it for deep-frying or searing at extremely high temperatures; that would be a waste of its subtle, organic flavours, which are lost at high heat.
