■ Oil with a delicate and refreshing aroma of organic lemon from Sicily This oil is made with high-quality essential oils refined from organic lemons from Sicily. You can enjoy the exceptional scent. The content of lemon essential oil is 1%. It is finished in an exquisite balance that complements the individuality of the oil and the scent of lemon. ■ To preserve the original scent of lemon Citrus fruits contain essential oils in the oil follicles on the surface of the peel, so essential oils can be extracted by crushing them under pressure. At Zottpera, we carefully use the following procedure for squeezing. (1) After washing, squeeze the whole lemon while cooling it with a high-pressure water spray. * Cold press (2) Removes solid skins and fibers. (3) Carefully filter the mixture of water and essential oils. (4) The mixture of highly concentrated essential oils and water is filtered again. (5) Store at 0°C. Essential oils obtained by cold pressing are less susceptible to heat alteration, so their natural aroma is preserved. Olive trees with an average age of 450 years Like EXV olive oil, this oil also uses "Tonda Ivrea". It is a rare endemic variety that can only be grown in just five villages in Sicily. To ensure quality, the olives are harvested one by one by hand and cold-pressed in a state-of-the-art oil mill within eight hours of harvest. The pressed olive oil does not pass through the filter, but naturally precipitates impurities in stainless steel tanks. Acidity not more than 0.25%. The oil is as fresh as fruit juice.
