Oils from Apulia / Italy

Frantoio Galantino

At Frantoio Galantino we have been producing high quality extra virgin olive oil since 1926. The olive oil is cold extracted from the best olives harvested in the north of Bari in Puglia and pressed using traditional granite millstones. We have complete control over the production chain: we cultivate our extensive olive groves ourselves. We grind the olives in our oil mill and bottle it in our facility. This guarantees us the high quality of an oil mill and the best taste experience.

Frantoio Muraglia

The story of Frantoio Muraglia

Frantoio Muraglia was born five generations ago in Andria, the capital of Puglia oil, but the patriarch of the family is 450 years old. It is a majestic Coratina olive tree, a native variety rich in polyphenols like few of the 538 classified Italian varieties.
Our history as an oil producer begins with this green giant that dominates our land on the Murge plateau, an area of 40 hectares of olive groves. Savino Muraglia Senior bought it to produce oil, contrary to the opinion of those who claimed that the land and the olives would not make one`s luck. Time will reveal who is really right.
What is certain is that from this stubborn grandfather - a stubborn one, as the residents of Puglia say - came the story of an oil that can now be found in the gourmet departments of forty countries. But many things have remained exactly as they originally were. Starting with the oath to preserve the biodiversity of the agricultural landscape and the plants that have strategic nutritional importance, such as the olive trees.
We still harvest the olives by hand and press them cold in the ancient stone mill. Our journey is towards extra virgin olive oil from Italy, without compromise.

Olive oil from Antica Masseria Caroli

Olive oil from Antica Masseria Caroli

In 1976, Stefano decided to open an oil mill in his name, with the dream of starting to distribute his own brand of virgin olive oil in the following years. And this dream will soon come true. A few years later, in 1984, he decided to bottle the oil with the Antica Masseria Caroli brand, which contributed to the improvement of the territory and its extra virgin olive oil. So Stefano pays attention to the quality of the product and the passion for the territory and the memories of his childhood.
By 2021, Stefano Caroli has opened a total of three stores and presents a selection of top products from Puglia, but also from other Italian regions.
