The King Extra Virgin Olive Oil Ceramic by Zia Pia

This ceramic bottle is handcrafted by Apulian artisans and designed by artist Pierpaolo Gaballo, who takes inspiration from three humble shapes, squares, ovals, and octagons and blends them together to create movement and life. These ceramics mirror the dual nature of Puglia - evocative, modern art filled with exceptional, traditional extra virgin olive oil. Made using only Coratina olives, the olive oil has initial notes of dill, fennel, artichoke and pepper with a spicy but balanced finish. 

Frantoio Muraglia, operated for five generations by the Muraglia family, prioritizes preserving the biodiversity of the agricultural landscape of Puglia and protecting the olive trees which are so vital to their company. All of their extra virgin olive oils are monocultivar, meaning they are made from a single variety of native olive, either Peranzana or Coratina. Following ancient Italian tradition, the olives are harvested by hand and crushed using a stone mill.
