Sicilian Roots and Olive-Growing Tradition

Sicily is one of the Mediterranean’s most historic olive-growing regions. The island’s combination of fertile soil, strong sunlight, and coastal air creates ideal conditions for producing olives with clarity and freshness.

Principe Primo is deeply connected to this environment. Their olive groves are managed with respect for the land and traditional farming practices, ensuring long-term soil health and consistent fruit quality. This close relationship with Sicilian terroir defines the character of their olive oils.

Principe Primo’s Approach to Olive Oil

Principe Primo follows a production philosophy built around purity, control, and consistency.

As a small-scale producer, they oversee every stage of production:

• Cultivation and care of the olive trees
• Harvesting olives at optimal ripeness
• Rapid milling to preserve freshness
• Careful extraction to protect natural flavour and structure

This method results in extra virgin olive oils that are clean, well balanced, and true to their origin, without unnecessary processing or industrial shortcuts.
