Production Process

Pricing Design Shape

The production process consists of precise and carefully controlled stages: olive weighing, defoliation, washing, and crushing, mainly carried out using hammer crushers (disc crushers available upon customer request).

The resulting olive paste undergoes malaxation at a controlled temperature below 26°C, followed by extraction and separation, in order to obtain an oil that preserves quality, aromas, and natural characteristics.

Reviews

The words of those who know us speak better than any advertisement.

“The Farfalline from the Kingdom of Butterflies participated enthusiastically in an educational outing at the Oleificio G. Messina in Tropea Concetta, as part of the tradition ‘from olive to oil.’ The children observed the machinery and learned about the oil production process, already studied in class. An important educational experience outside school, made special by the warm welcome and availability of the owners and staff of the oil mill.”

“G. Messina oil is now a staple in my kitchen. You can tell it’s a real product, made with love and respect for nature. The aroma and taste remind me of the oil my grandfather used: pure and genuine.”

Anna R. – Palermo

“I discovered Oleificio Messina during a vacation in Sicily and since then I order every year. It’s an oil that speaks of the land and of those who produce it. The customer service is impeccable, always kind and helpful.”

Marco L. – Milan

“I went on a guided tour of the mill with my child’s school: a beautiful and educational experience. We saw how oil is made and tasted the freshly pressed one. Now I can’t buy any other!”
