Our company was born in March 2019.
The love for our land, a strong reference to the origins and history, handed down to us by our grandparents, an in-depth and specialized study of the sector and the continuous challenge towards innovation have led us to create an excellent extra virgin olive oil, able to interpret and tell a wonderful territory, a land that over the centuries has welcomed different peoples and cultures in an overwhelming embrace.Our olive grove is located in the western part of Sicily, in the province of Trapani, between Selinunte and Marsala, in the Archaeological Park of the Cave di Cusa. Embrace was born here, on this timeless island, where a journey becomes a journey of the heart in which one is overwhelmed by an embrace that one cannot do without. We produce two types of oils: Evo Embrace Nocellara del Belice and Evosì blend Nocellara del Belice and Biancolilla.
Our faces, our hands, our dedication, as a guarantee of excellent quality from the field to the bottle.

Embrace. A mono-varietal from Nocellara del Belice
Most valuable cultivar among the Sicilian indigenous varieties. It is present on the Sicilian territory, in particular in the Trapani countryside. Although Pliny and Cicero attribute the introduction of the olive tree to Greek colonization, archaeological research instead documents that the olive tree was introduced in Sicily probably already in prehistoric times.

artichoke and finally a nuance of aromatic herbs.
Taste
On the palate it is enveloping and elegant, and confirms the breadth of the vegetal notes, revealing pleasant bitter and spicy sensations in a harmonious balance. Gently spiced with a mild sweet finish. Fresh and persistent.
Paring Embraces and wraps each dish in its different shades, enhancing the flavors.
Uncooked Raw it is ideal for raw fish appetizers and meat and fish tartare. In first courses of fish such as tagliatelle with red shrimp and bottarga and lemon peel, or with fresh broad beans and salmon, busiate with pink shrimp, orange and artichokes,pasta with sardines and fennel.In cooking it is ideal in the preparation of roasts and fries and first courses, thanks to the fact that its smoke point is higher than other types of oils.
When cooked, it is perfect for meat ragout, pork loin with honey and orange and onion, chicken with mushrooms, walled octopuses, and spatula ragout.
Its use in pastry is surprising, on vanilla ice cream with berries, on a fennel granita, for the preparation of orange and cinnamon cakes, lemon mousse, and chocolate cakes.
