Ruvo di Puglia, Land of Olive Oil and Culture
In the heart of Puglia, there is a place where the scent of olive trees fills the air and tradition blends with innovation: Ruvo di Puglia. Among centuries-old olive groves and dry-stone walls, a cold pressed extra virgin olive oil is born—crafted with patience, agricultural wisdom, and artisanal passion.
Ruvo is more than a town; it is a historical and agricultural hub that has safeguarded olive-growing knowledge for centuries. Since antiquity, its people have transformed this generous land into high-quality Puglian EVOO, once used as food, medicine, and a symbol of prosperity.
Beyond its oil, Ruvo di Puglia is famous for its Romanesque Cathedral, a jewel of Apulian architecture, and for the Jatta Archaeological Museum, which houses an exceptional collection of Greek vases. Amphorae and decorations testify to how central olive oil was in daily life since ancient times.
The Ritual of Harvest and the Olive Mill
In Ruvo, the olive harvest is still a collective ritual that involves entire families. In the fields, work becomes a celebration of community, while at the local olive mill the freshly picked olives are processed within hours.
Thanks to cold pressing, the oil retains its aromas, polyphenols, and nutrients, offering fragrances of fresh grass, artichoke, and almond.
Among the cultivars, Coratina stands out as the queen of Puglian olives. Rich in polyphenols, bold and slightly spicy, it produces a robust and fruity extra virgin olive oil—perfect for bruschetta, seasonal vegetables, and rustic traditional dishes.
