The 2024 Casin’Anand olive harvest
- October 31, 2024
Dear friends, last week we finished this year’s olive harvest.
As every year, it was a pleasant, fun and worthwhile event.
We shared the work with guests interested in this bucolic activity, who were very satisfied, telling us how even the simple act of manually picking the precious precious small fruits transported them to an area of relaxation and peace.
The sun was present at the call, and its beneficial rays that crossed the rich branches were a pleasant caress that accompanied the work. It would start at 8 a.m. and stop at 12 noon.
Our farm staff would start earlier and pick the tallest olives with harvesters that had to be handled with skill.
The guests, in cheerful company, continued with the collection of the more accessible ones;
Our olive trees are healthy, we look after them with true affection and thanks to the successful combination of leccino, ogliarola leccese, cellina di Nardo, nociaria and pendolino (the recognised cultivars, but also those yet to be identified) the results can be seen. yet to be identified) the results are seen.
This year, from our 500 trees, working cheerfully, without pushing to the limit, we obtained more than 400 litres and the oil extracted has an acidity of only 0.2, so super extra virgin!
The proceeds are put into our boxes and sold in our domestic shipment: La Tienda, abroad and mainly for domestic consumption of the dishes prepared for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
It is a niche product of the highest order, when it is so pure it is a great cholesterol-lowering remedy. You can ask my husband who, with 1 spoonful on an empty stomach every morning, no longer takes any other medication and at the last test everything was perfect!
PS. If our oil inspires you and you would like to taste it but cannot visit us, you can always contact us and we can deliver it to your home!
Out of time and space to become aware that it is the “here and now” that counts.
