EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL FROM ABRUZZO (500ML)

EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL FROM ABRUZZO (500ML)

Sale price  £11.34 Regular price  £18.90

Harvested early in October on a rural family farm in Abruzzo, our extra virgin olive oil is cold-extracted and unfiltered to keep its bright green colour and peppery finish.

Pressed in small batches with a 0.2% acidity, it’s naturally rich in antioxidants and polyphenols - the kind of olive oil meant to be part of everyday life.

Poured into a 500ml recyclable aluminium tin to protect freshness, flavour, and what matters most.

Our 2024 harvest was bottled in March 2025. The printed best-before date (September 2026) was mistakenly calculated from the harvest date rather than the bottling date, it should read end of March 2027. The oil is in perfect condition and remains at its best well beyond the printed date.

Popoli’s Extra Virgin Olive Oil is handcrafted in Abruzzo, Italy, where our family has cultivated olives for four generations. Cold-extracted and unfiltered, this EVOO is made from early-harvest olives.

Our olives were picked in early October 2024, at the moment when they are still green and full of life. Harvesting this early preserves the highest levels of polyphenols and antioxidants, the natural compounds that support heart, brain, and gut health. It also creates the fresh, peppery finish that makes early-harvest oil so special.

Popoli is packaged in a sleek, fully recyclable aluminium tin;  a choice rooted in both tradition and responsibility. Aluminium protects the oil from light and air far better than glass, keeping the flavour at its peak. It’s also lighter to transport, resulting in a lower-emission footprint from the groves to your kitchen.

Excellent quality Extra virgin olive oil. Delicious, delicate and peppery. I like the little tins, too. Great size for picking up and pouring, and the graphic design and typography is very tasteful.

What a simple yet complex, fresh taste. Like a good beaujolais of the olive oil world; young but full of class! Our current go-to for drizzle or dipping. Certainly a worthy centre piece to any table.

An excellent extra virgin Italian olive oil of remarkable quality. The flavor is beautifully balanced, fresh, and authentic, with a natural elegance that speaks to careful production and premium ingredients.
Perfect for aperitifs, drizzling over fresh bread, salads, or simple dishes where the olive oil truly shines. I am very pleased with this purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a refined, high-quality olive oil.

Beyond its beautiful packaging, Popoli is something truly special and absolutely worth it. From the very first sip, you can feel its exceptional quality and the meticulous care behind every step of its creation. Its deep, vibrant color mirrors a bold, expressive flavor that transforms even the simplest dishes. It has become an essential part of my everyday life—one of those products you reach for without thinking because you trust it completely. I recommend it 100%: a beautifully crafted olive oil that speaks for itself.

Popoli is my go-to olive oil, I honestly use it on everything. It’s super light and fresh with an almost citrusy taste(?) which makes it different from others I’ve tried. Love the aesthetic of the bottle - I always get compliments when it’s out on the shelf! ❤️

Didn’t taste peppery or fresh, maybe it got too warm in transit or something but tastes very flat and supermarket-grade

Lovely oil, was persuaded by the offer to buy 4. Stock arrived was short-dated. I guess they have it to clear but they should say so.

Excellente huile d’olive!! Je me réjouis de l’utiliser cet été avec des crudités 🫶🏽
Petit bémol pour le packaging qui ne permet pas une utilisation propre à chaque usage mais c’est vraiment mineur et n’influence en aucun cas la qualité du produit.

Super qualité, une huile d'olive en provenance d'une petite production familiale avec beaucoup de délicatesse - vraiment haut de gamme - pour sublimer les plats et planchettes de notre petit restaurant. Et le design est très joli, le petit bidon qui décore joliment notre étagère :) vivement les plus grands formats!
