From the Family-Owned Olive Mill: A Legacy of Excellence
Since 1900, ROI has been dedicated to perfecting olive products across four generations, providing a rich selection of exceptional items. Our aim is to celebrate the quality of Italian and Taggiasca olives through a diverse range of offerings, including oils, sauces, and exclusive creations. The journey began when Giuseppe "Pepin u Roi," our great-grandfather, established our first oil mill using the local wood and stone sourced from our valley. Today, his great-grandson Paolo, alongside his father, continues this passionate legacy at the family-run oil mill.
What sets our products apart? The answer lies in our 42 hectares of olive groves nestled in the Argentina valley, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. This unique landscape imparts distinctive characteristics to our oils, shaped by a growing tradition that dates back to Roman times.
Addressing the Challenges of Olive Oil Production
Our oils are made exclusively from the first cold pressing of olives. We employ cutting-edge technology that avoids heating the paste or adding hot water. This method enhances the bio-nutritional value, preserves organoleptic qualities, and ensures superior storage capabilities of our Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO).
Crafting Unique Flavors
Creating high-quality Ligurian oil is akin to an art form. Much of our success in flavor development comes from the diverse plant life in our region, which cultivates olives with low acidity, a fruity bouquet, and a pleasantly sweet profile. These features enrich the oil while maintaining a harmonious balance.
Product Highlights: Frantoio Roi
As a modest, family-owned EVOO producer, ROI operates within an environment shaped by Mediterranean flora, steep hills, and the sea. Our olive mill comprises both a traditional granite millstone with two presses and a modern facility designed for continuous cold extraction.
Discover the Unique Tags of Taggiasca Olives
Situated in one of Italy's most captivating regions, our estate is characterized by terraced lands and cliffs that stretch toward the Mediterranean Sea. The distinctive climate and sea air enhance the taste and aroma of our oils, particularly the Monocultivar Taggiasca, produced through the first cold pressing with the traditional granite millstone.
Environmental Responsibility: Friend of the Earth (FOE)
Our olives are sourced exclusively from certified suppliers, ensuring that our raw materials are 100% Italian, specifically Cultivar Taggiasca from Liguria. The Imperia Chamber of Commerce rigorously tests and certifies our oils as FOE, which are also recognized as organic by the FDA.
