Libellula Classico Olive Oil

100% regeneratively farmed extra virgin olive oil from Italy's family farmers

This year's harvest is one of the best that Italy has ever seen.

And you don't have to take our word for it: Libellula extra virgin olive oil has just been awarded the gold medal by the USI Olive Oil Competition.

Throughout his lifetime living in Italy, Camillo, our co-founder, has never tasted olive oil quite like this.

In fact, if you pop over to Rome now, you will see people selling bottles of extra virgin olive oil straight from their groves for almost double the price of last year's harvest because it is just. that. good.

Like all Libellula extra virgin olive oil, our 375ml glass bottle of 2024 Classico is grown, pressed, and bottled by our collective of Italian family farmers in the hills just outside Rome.

Classico olives are pressed in November, months earlier than the big distributors. This creates an antioxidant-rich and high-polyphenol count of between 350 to 400 mg/kg. Typical extra virgin olive oil only has about 100-150mg/kg.

Classico flavor notes: floral, undertones of apple & artichoke
Chef-recommended pairings: salads, fish, daily cooking & hors d'oeuvres

About the Brand - Libellula
Libellula is a collective of family farmers located in the hills just outside of Rome. Founded by Julia and Camillo, Libellula was created to support small-scale Italian olive farmers who were abandoning their groves due to the challenges posed by climate change.

By uniting as a collective, the group pools its knowledge and resources, working closely with farmers to implement climate-resilient agricultural practices. This collaboration ensures that each farmer has the support needed to maintain their olive groves for generations to come—and to share their exquisite extra virgin olive oil beyond their local communities.

Thanks to its regenerative farming methods, Libellula’s olive oil contains 3 to 6 times more polyphenols and antioxidants than typical extra virgin olive oil.
