The Story
The Barbera family has been producing oil since 1894. Two brothers, Vincent and Lorenzo, began growing citrus and olives on their estate near Palermo and soon began bottling oil. Four generations later, their oil is bottled in Murano glass and revered for it's flavor and consistency. The Barbera family handpicks the olives and then sorts them for quality. This unfiltered oil is a blend of several Sicilian olive varieties: cerasuola, biancolilla, and nocellara.
