Frantoio Muraglia Intense Extra Virgin Olive Oil in Limited Edition ‘King’ Terracotta, 500ml
The limited edition intense fruity extra virgin olive oil in Gaballo terracotta bottle is the result of a partnership between Italian olive oil producers Frantoio Muraglia, and Apulian artist, Pierpaolo Gaballo.
The intensely fruity olive oil is made from cold-pressed Coratina olives – a variety native to the Apulia region of Italy, where the Frantoio Muraglia olive groves are located. Coratina olives are unique in that they contain three times more antioxidant polyphenols than any other Italian olive variety. This gives the oil its intense flavour, with spicy notes and hints of astringency. With undertones of dill, pepper and fennel, it is perfect paired with raw vegetables and salads.
Each one of the monochrome bottles is handmade by Apulian ceramicists, complete with three geometric symbols: a square, oval and an octagon. Each shape represents a different aspect of the olive oil production journey:
- The square represents the earth, and the starting point for olive oil
- The oval represents the main fruit of Frantoio Muraglia production: the olives
- The octagon represents the people, always striving for excellence
The three geometric symbols are paired with a striking ‘King’ design. The ‘Mother Nature’ medium fruity extra virgin olive oil is the perfect partner to create a delicious duo.Â

Frantoio Muraglia are passionate about olives. Watching over their company is the oldest olive tree in their grove – a majestic Coratina olive tree that is at least 450 years old and still gives fruit. They’ve been growing and pressing olives in the same way for nearly five generations of the Muraglia family, and their extra virgin olive oils have won numerous awards.
