Pitted Taggiasca Olives have a distinctive, slightly bitter taste and texture that is soft yet crunchy. According to the centuries-old traditional brine recipe, the olives are harvested and carefully selected, then marinated with thyme, bay leaf and rosemary. When ready, they are pitted and covered with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Perfect to eat out of the jar, or add to a classic tomato salad, or on top of a pizza or bruschetta.
