Azienda Agricola Burgus Vitae di Cesare Tiberio
Burgus Vitae is a family company located in Abruzzo, Italy that produce extra virgin olive oil since generations. The first family olive oil mil was opened in 1939.
Since then we have maintained the tradition according to which the olives are harvested by hand and pressed on the same day.
We use the stone pressing technique that, combined with the most recent extracting machines, allows us to obtain an EVO oil at a low temperature in order to preserve the varietal aromas of the olives to the maximum.
For years we have been committed to the processing of quality products respecting the environment and enhancing the nature that surrounds us.
The estate extends over an area of about 20 hectares dedicated to vineyards and olive groves.
Our olive trees are located on the hills around 300 metres above the sea, 5km far from the Adriatic Sea and 30km far from the Majella massif (2795m). This particular exposure benefits from an ideal micro-climate for the production of quality olives and oil.
We produce 2 types of extra virgin olive oil: one blend from the different varieties of olives from our olive grove and one monocultivar called Gentile di Chieti, typical of our territory.
