Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Santidu

2022 Harvest Sardinian Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Made entirely from a single olive cultivar known as Ogliastrina, this 2022 harvest extra virgin olive oil from the Italian island of Sardinia is delicate with layered notes of fruit and green herbs. A delicate spice on the finish rounds out this mild-intensity olive oil.

How to use

This olive oil makes a beautiful addition to classic regional dishes of Sardegna. Drizzle over Fregola Sarda with Clams & Zucchini, pour over crispy sheets of pane carasau (Sardinian flatbread) topped with fleur de sel or use as a base for a simple tomato sauce destined for malloreddus (traditional saffron-flavored gnochette pasta).

Santidu olive oil also shines in simple vegetable preparations. Use to marinate baby artichokes, drizzle atop grilled asparagus or toss with fresh fava beans and spoon over crostini.

About the producer

Santidu (meaning "feelings” in Sardinian), makes olive oil from olives grown in groves that have been producing for centuries. Situated in the Marmilla region of Sardinia in the heart of the Mediterranean, Santidu is located in the perfect environment for the olive tree: planted among verdant rolling hills with southern exposure to sun and circulation of fresh air from constant sea breezes.
