Flos Olei 2014 is the guide to the world of extra virgin olive oil, of international interest. The protagonists are the oil producing companies from all over the world and their extra virgin olive oils, evaluated by a team of expert tasters coordinated by Marco Oreggia, editor and publisher.
“Flos Olei – the publisher and curator Marco Oreggia says – has become a point of reference for all those working in the sector with a publication that is growing year by year. We have presented the 500 companies that in our opinion are the most important in the world, with 703 labels, from 47 countries and 5 continents, with Switzerland and Ukraine as new entries”.
The Guide presents as well as 47 countries producing olive oil selected in 5 continents. Italy and Spain have a careful mapping of the olive oil sector
on regional basis, together with historical and cultural information, production data, typical varieties and areas protected by the designation.
Particularly accurate is the cartography that includes both the olive–growing areas of greater vocation and those with a designation of origin. In addition, to each production reality, a sheet with tasting notes about the oils and food pairings is dedicated.
