Frequently asked questions
What makes BellaTerra olive oil different? BellaTerra olive oil is sourced from small, experienced producers in Italy who have a long tradition of crafting high-quality extra virgin olive oil. We focus on early harvest oils with naturally high polyphenol content, known for their antioxidant properties and bold flavour. Our flagship oils come from the volcanic soil of Mount Etna, where mineral-rich conditions contribute to a distinctive taste and exceptional quality.
What are polyphenols in olive oil? Polyphenols are natural plant compounds found in olives that act as powerful antioxidants. In extra virgin olive oil, they help protect the oil from oxidation and contribute to its characteristic bitterness and peppery finish. These compounds are also linked to a range of health benefits, including supporting heart health and reducing inflammation.
What is Volcanic olive oil? Volcanic olive oil refers to extra virgin olive oil made from olives grown in volcanic soil, such as the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily. This type of soil is naturally rich in minerals, which nourish the olive trees and influence the oil’s composition. The result is an olive oil that is often higher in polyphenols, with a more complex flavour profile. Many people also find volcanic olive oils to be smoother and more balanced, with a well-rounded taste that reflects the unique terroir.
