The slowness it is underrated. A fruit that reaches its ripeness, a dough that rises, a fetus that grows, a pain that grips, a considered decision: there are many processes that they need time to evolve and give their best.

It's the same for the oil. By respecting certain standards and carrying out cold pressing (i.e. below 25°), even a continuous system can generate excellent oil. But where the continuous plant is closed, rapid and detached, the traditional method involves the use of more machinery and a whole series of steps which must follow one another in a certain order while assisting enchanted and inebriated by the smell to the transformations of the olives, which first become crushed paste, then oily must and only at the end... extra virgin olive oil.

La Pietra Bianca has always been available to milling service for third parties. In other words, if you own an olive grove you can bring your olives to us. Once you arrive at our oil mill, your olives will be unloaded and weighed. The milling cycle for 3 quintals of olives lasts 3 hours.

Once your oil has been extracted, you will be free to decide whether to package it in our cans or bottles or in your own containers. In order to obtain an excellent quality oil, it is necessary to contact us or come and visit us in the Frantoio to schedule the moment of milling avoiding excessively long storage times.

We want to tell you a short story that begins with a Trinitapoli native transplanted to Holland.
Nel 2015 il nostro eroe compra l’olio de La Pietra Bianca, lo fa assaggiare ai suoi amici olandesi e, irrimediabilmente, conquers them all. Informed of the widespread enthusiasm, Domenico and his wife Tonia fly to the Netherlands and the projectI Custodi del Giardino" it comes to life.

However, the project only took off when a Dutch journalist gave her parents the gift of adopting one of our olive trees. On the occasion of the 25th wedding anniversary, the couple thought it best to come to Puglia and visit their tree. Un articolo di giornale corredato di foto degli “sposini” nell’oliveto e di tutte le informazioni relative al progetto “I Custodi del Giardino” it was decisive for its incredible diffusion.
