The greve pesa consortium produces a high and very high quality extra virgin olive oil, using Tuscan olives mainly produced from local olive groves and using production processes that comply with the criteria to guarantee the high quality of the extra virgin olive oil produced.
One of the essential factors in ensuring the quality of the oil is to process the olives as soon as possible after they have been harvested. This is one of the reasons why the consortium was born: to give Tuscan growers an easily accessible oil mill to crush the olives and produce the oil immediately after the harvest.
