Rastrello Single Family, an extra vir­gin olive oil pro­duced by Rastrello, has been awarded a Gold at the 2025 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. This pres­ti­gious event is rec­og­nized glob­ally for iden­ti­fy­ing the high­est qual­ity olive oils.

The olive oil is crafted from a blend of Moraiolo, Frantoio, Leccino, Pendolino, Dolce Agogia, Rosciola dell’Umbria, and Nero di Panicale olives. These olives are hand-picked from a fam­ily farm in Umbria, Italy, where most of the 2,000 trees are approx­i­mately 400 years old. This her­itage blend is a tes­ta­ment to the far­m’s long-stand­ing tra­di­tion in olive oil pro­duc­tion.

Rastrello Single Family is pro­duced using cold extrac­tion meth­ods, ensur­ing the preser­va­tion of its nat­ural fla­vors and nutri­tional prop­er­ties. The farm is cer­ti­fied organic and holds the Colle del Trasimeno Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), which guar­an­tees the authen­tic­ity and qual­ity of the prod­uct.

Operating as a tra­di­tional farm, Rastrello relies pri­mar­ily on nat­ural irri­ga­tion meth­ods. This approach, com­bined with the age and vari­ety of the olive trees, con­tributes to the unique char­ac­ter­is­tics of the oil.

The recog­ni­tion at the NYIOOC high­lights the excep­tional qual­ity of Rastrello Single Family, plac­ing it among the top extra vir­gin olive oils in the world.
