Johnny Madge recently introduced us to this Producer of some of the finest extra virgin olive oils in Italy and perhaps the world. Indeed, Johnny's introduction to our Tour group visiting his mill in the Cilento area during the fall of 2019 was quite spectacular (but now I feel underrated), as "the great Massimo Ambrosio" of Cilento!

Massimo's mill, brand new and equipped with the latest technological advances for milling extra virgin olive oil was well hidden in the countryside, "off the beaten path" surrounded by "geometric groves" of olives.

We were enormously fortunate to have Massimo host us as he started up his mill and we were able to watch all the fascinating steps he and his assistant took to produce the iridescent, green extra virgin olive oil (see images) we all tasted straight out of the centrifuge!

Our guests have asked repeatedly since, when we would we be able to offer this spectacular extra virgin on our website. Well, now it's here...
