The most popular olives since the Middle Ages
Leccino Olives are one of the most commonly grown olive varieties. Originally from Central Italy, references to them have been found since the Middle Ages. Today, they can be found throughout Italy.
The soft and sweet taste of this olive marries with its tender yet substantial flesh.
Serving suggestion
Since they are already destoned, the fresh Leccino Olives are convenient and ready to use in any recipe, which makes them ideal for everyday cooking.
Wonderful for whipping up quick nibbles or starters paired with aged cheeses and cured meats, they are also often used to flavour meat, fish and Mediterranean vegetable dishes.
