Frantoio Sant'Agata d'Oneglia Famiglia Mela

Our oil mill is located in the small, picturesque village of Sant`Agata d`Oneglia, in the hilly countryside of Imperia, overlooking the Ligurian coast, where our family has been making typical regional products from our small, highly aromatic Taggiasca olives for over 180 years. The olive trees are pruned and harvested by hand. The rhythm of the seasons revolves around the harvest. Our small Taggiasca olive is picked before it is fully ripe, sorted on the same day and cold pressed with the utmost precision. All this is done to create an aromatic, naturally pure, oxidant-free olive oil. The result is a delicate food that is good for your health and beauty.rnOur great success lies in the fact that the products are not mass-produced, and their consistently high quality is appreciated by lovers of Mediterranean cuisine from France to Germany, from Japan to North America, as well as by famous chefs and the best delicatessen dealers.rnWe are a member of the elite group –“Corporatione dei Master Oliari", which is dedicated to the manufacture of, and research into, olive oil.
