I am Emanuele Moscini, I cultivate the eco farm Il Sogno Verde, the land of which has belonged to my family since 1847, with craftsmanship, passion and love for nature.
I personally take care of all the phases of olive production with attention to detail. It takes place exclusively in my 6 hectare centuries-old olive grove in Canino, on the border between Lazio and Tuscany.
The 388 monumental olive trees around 400 years old, that even reach over 10 meters in height are interspersed with large grassy spaces that preserve biodiversity and, with the presence of numerous melliferous plants, are a source of nourishment for bees.
We combine tradition with innovative agronomic practices that reuse processing waste in favor of the fertility and health of the soil which, together with the trees, captures CO2, helping to combat climate change.
The milling of the olives of the caninese cultivar, small and mostly green at the time of harvest, takes place within the day, the oil is cold pressed in an artisan-sized mill, which manages to enhance the properties of the raw material.
In 2023 our EVO oil is medium fruity with an acidity of 0.2%, indication of high quality and of the presence of a large amount of polyphenols and antioxidants which are precious allies for our health.
Intense green in colour, it has a strong and fruity flavour from which herbaceous, bitter and spicy notes emerge.
On the nose, the hints of thistle, fresh grass and artichoke are striking.
It goes raw on bruschetta, salads, hot soups, cooked vegetables, legumes, meat and fish.
It is also indicated for cooking and frying.
We are present in the most important Italian and international EVO oil guides, such as Gambero Rosso, Slow Food, Flos Olei, we were awarded with the extragold medal and the biolpack prize of the 2024 Biol international prize, ranking among the best organic EVO oils in the world.
