Castelvetrano Green Sweet Olives – Sicily
In the shadow of the temples of Selinunte

These olives are harvested from the end of September before they are ripe, that is when the pulp is crunchy and the fruits have a bright green color. With a rounded shape and firm pulp, Castelvetrano olives are characterized by having a sweet taste with a slight sapidity.
