The core values of L'Altro Sapore are a passion for excellence and goodness, understood as a love for beauty and craftsmanship. They work to improve their customers' quality of life by offering them an exceptional extra virgin Italian organic olive oil created according to these values. 

The organic farm of L'Altro Sapore, founded in 2009, currently has 7.5 hectares of olive groves, with over 2,000 trees, which produce Grand Cru – Monocultivar.

Respect for the environment and energy saving are the cornerstones of their philosophy. In fact, they promote regenerative agriculture that maintains high biodiversity and limits CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, thanks also to their organic certification.

All the oils are produced with olives harvested early and processed within 12 hours, favoring the accumulation of polyphenols and increasing the nutraceutical and antioxidant properties of the products. After filtration, storage is carried out at a controlled temperature and under nitrogen to limit oxidation.

During bottling, they saturate the headspace of the bottles to ensure maximum shelf life, thus maintaining all the organoleptic characteristics.
