Arsenio, a ded­i­cated organic olive oil pro­ducer based in Italy, has achieved a Gold Award at the NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. The recog­ni­tion was given for their Ora extra vir­gin olive oil, which is cul­ti­vated in the Florentine hills.

The NYIOOC, known as the World Olive Oil Competition, is a pres­ti­gious event that eval­u­ates olive oils from around the globe. Arsenio’s com­mit­ment to organic farm­ing and envi­ron­men­tal sus­tain­abil­ity is reflected in their metic­u­lous approach to olive cul­ti­va­tion and har­vest­ing.

The pro­duc­er’s grove in Italy con­tains four dif­fer­ent olive vari­eties, each har­vested at opti­mal ripeness to bal­ance fruiti­ness, bit­ter­ness, spici­ness, and sweet­ness. Arsenio empha­sizes the impor­tance of same-day press­ing to pre­vent dete­ri­o­ra­tion of the olives, ensur­ing the qual­ity of their oil.

The Gold Award at the NYIOOC high­lights Arsenio’s ded­i­ca­tion to pro­duc­ing high-qual­ity organic olive oil while main­tain­ing envi­ron­men­tally friendly prac­tices.

The win­ning brands are pre­sented in the Official Guide and the Olive Oil Times World Ranking.
