Now Viewing: Tibvrtini
Novello translates to: new, pressed. Tibvrtini hails just east of Rome, from an olive grove whose trees descended from Ancient Rome. Tuscan Tenuta di Cappezzana features the peppery finish long favored in other regional oils. The novello is ideal for fettunta or "oiled slice." That's bruschetta to you and me. But those Tuscans, they love their oil so much, they emphasize it rather than the bread. A longtime store favorite, Olio Verde from western Sicily lives up to its name. This liquid gold is actually cloudy chartreuse green with flavors of sweet almonds and tomatoes.
