In the heart of Tuscany in the hills around Florence, the headquarters of "Frantoio Sociale cooperativa Valvirginio" ; a natural setting as the  environmental conditions make it ideal for the cultivation of olives and  vines, which give existence to the typical Tuscan landscape with its own  characteristics and its centuries-old history that goes from the Middle Ages  to the present day.

The Tuscan extra virgin olive oil produced by the  co-operative has two key features that distinguish it from other vegetable  oils: it's obtained from a fruit , it's extracted from the olives only  mechanically.

These properties together with the norm that prevents the  inclusion of any additive makes this product a natural food , which enhances  the organoleptic typical Tuscan characteristics.

The oil is among the most appreciated in the world for its aroma and  balanced flavour, making it unique and fundamental as a condiment, but also  in the preparation of typical Tuscan dishes.

The philosophy of the Cantina Colli Fiorentini mill, with its 350 members, has  always aimed at enhancing this product by focusing on quality and linking it  to the territory.
