The olives for Olio DeMarco are harvested with
care in a careful process using no pesticides or harsh chemicals to ruin the original taste of the fruit. Since the olives are fragile and firmly attached to the tree, they are still frequently harvested by
hand. Workers balance on ladders and climb into the branches, snatching limbs with one hand and combing with the other with
plastic comb heads. They may use small hand tools to strip the branches or use their hands, which they protect by wearing
gloves or taping their palms. The most modern method which farmers use to collect the olives is the use of a new machine that
grips onto the trunk of the olive tree and shakes it. The vibration of the tree makes the mature olives fall off and leaves
behind the un-ripened olives.
Many experts feel that hand harvesting is essential to producing the finest quality oils because mechanical
picking bruises the fruit and increases the acidity and tartness of the resulting oil.
The packaging of Olio DeMarco is outstanding in
appearance and has the distinctive "Family Crest" on the label. Each bottle and tin has important and valuable information
for the consumer as well as a freshness date to ensure quality and great taste.
Olio DeMarco is Pure Extra Virgin. When you say Extra Virgin, you mean maximum quality. Olio DeMarco is
First Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Unfiltered Olive Oil, with less than 0.35% acidity.
DeMarco Family Tradition - The art of processing at the oil mill is a family
tradition, and has remained in the hands of the same family for five generations. This family legacy is the hallmark of quality.
