Finish with a sprig of fragrant thyme and a few drops of EVOO (perfect with our limited-edition Sicilian).

Chiara was our first choice for an artist to design our Tuscan Extra Rare olive oil, and the partnership seemed serendipitous: she tells us in the studio that she was musing on the possibility of de...
