Online Shopping at Spannocchia
Update: our olive oil and honey are sold out! Our cookbooks are still available. Check back in 2008 for news about olive oil and honey for next year.
Have you run out of the Spannocchia olive oil that you so carefully transported home with you after your visit to the farm? Have you always wanted to visit Spannocchia but just haven’t been able to yet? Are you looking for the perfect drizzle for your spring asparagus?
Here is your chance to buy Spannocchia’s own organic extra virgin olive oil in the United States, and have it delivered right to your doorstep! We have a limited supply of oil from our 2006 harvest available and we are giving our members and friends the chance to be first in line for ordering our version of liquid gold.
We have 250ml bottles available, and orders are limited to 12 bottles per person, so that we can ensure that as many people as possible can have a taste of Spannocchia in their own kitchen this spring. We have also imported our organic wildflower honey, in 250g and 500g jars – the perfect sweet accompaniment to your tea and toast at breakfast.
The oil and honey have arrived in the USA and will be shipped between May 7 and May 11. Order now because supplies are limited! We will process your order and mail it to you via UPS ground service.
Spannocchia olive oil is a terrific addition to any meal – as a salad dressing, drizzle for grilled vegetables or bruschetta, or for making a divine insalata caprese with ripe tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and a pinch of salt and pepper! Our oil is made from olives grown with organic methods, hand-picked to ensure quality and freshness, and pressed in a Tuscan frantoio, or olive press. At Spannocchia, we consider the olive to be a sacred fruit, and have an enormous amount of respect for the value that olives and their oil add to the culture and history of Italy and Tuscany.
Here is a visual account of the olive oil production process at Spannocchia – what arrives at your doorstep this spring is the end result of hard work on the part of many interns, volunteers, and staff at Spannocchia, and your purchase helps to ensure that we will be able to offer this experience to many more interns and volunteers in the future!
Buon Appetito!
