Sant’ Angelica, a small arti­san olive farm located in the Maremma region of Tuscany, Italy, has been rec­og­nized at the 2025 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. The brand received a Gold award, high­light­ing its excel­lence in pro­duc­ing high-qual­ity extra vir­gin olive oil.

The Sant’ Angelica brand is known for its vibrant, intense, and fra­grant oil, which is a result of using four indige­nous Tuscan olive vari­eties: Morella, Frantoio, Pendolino, and Horn Leccini. The olives are har­vested early, hand­picked, and pressed within hours of col­lec­tion, ensur­ing the fresh­ness and qual­ity of the oil.

The Sant’ Angelica pro­ducer oper­ates organ­i­cally, with 900 trees over­look­ing the Tyrrhenian Sea in Capalbio. This loca­tion in the unspoilt Maremma region con­tributes to the unique char­ac­ter­is­tics of their extra vir­gin olive oil, known for its burst of pep­pery green­ness.

The NYIOOC is the largest annual analy­sis of olive oil qual­ity, and receiv­ing a Gold award is a sig­nif­i­cant achieve­ment for any pro­ducer. Sant’ Angelica’s recog­ni­tion at this com­pe­ti­tion under­scores the qual­ity and crafts­man­ship involved in their olive oil pro­duc­tion.
