Organically-farmed. High in polyphenols. Small batch.

Introducing a thoughtful, single estate, extra virgin olive oil from the Maremma region of the Tuscan coast in Italy. This Tuscan olive oil is made by a dynamic husband and wife duo who are combining their background in conservation and natural land management with a passion for nutrition.
This is one of our "Extra Rare" limited batches and is best used as a finishing EVOO to keep the high level of antioxidants and peppery flavour intact.

1 glass bottle: 500ml
Harvest: October 2024.
Variety: Blend of primarily Frantoio, Leccino, and other Tuscan varieties, with smaller amounts of Coratina and Grignano.
*Note from producer: "While Coratina (from Puglia) and Grignano (from the Verona area) are historically used for blending, in our case they play a minor but meaningful role—Coratina adds structure, and Grignano contributes to the aromatics."
Polyphenols: 655 mg/kg.
Origin: Maremma, Tuscany, Italy.
Process: Superior category extra virgin olive oil obtained directly from mechanical (never chemical or heated) means. 0.15% acidity. The olives are milled within 3-5 hours of being picked. This oil is filtered.
Agriculture: Organically-farmed with regenerative practices focussed on soil health and biodiversity.
Soil type: Clay.
Candice comes from the arts. Fabrizio comes from the land.

Together they have a lifelong commitment to sustainability, which is present in every decision, action, and detail of their work.

They're also equally passionate about the nutritional side.

"We use precision farming methods and state-of-the-art extraction technology to bring you something unique; high phenolic olive oil, a gift for your palate and a longevity resource for your body."

Coming from 20 hectares of organically-farmed olive groves facing the Mediterranean sea, in one of the most unspoilt and fascinating areas in the region, this is an oil as beautiful as its homeland.
Nose: A robust, green, herbaceous oil with aromas of artichoke & white pepper. It's almost creamy with floral notes like those of clover flowers.

Palate: There’s an amaretto note coming from almond and apple. It's bitter—showcasing its Tuscan roots. It finishes with an intense but clean pepper from the soaring polyphenols in this curated blend.

Pairings: Try this with zingy grapefruit. Pour over a seafood steak like a seared tuna. Let it sing over fresh mozzarella salad. Brighten up hearty bean stews. This is an oil for robust pastas. Pour over a steak. Drizzle with dark chocolate.
100% olives from small batches. Nothin' but the juice, baby.

This early-harvest Tuscan olive oil is packed with antioxidants, and comes in at a whopping 655 mg/kg of total polyphenols (when tested in February 2025), which is above the 250 mg/kg benchmark set by EU Regulation (No. 432/2012) about high-polyphenol olive oils.

Exceeded expectations

Amazing tasting extra virgin olive oil. Bought the Olive Oil Subscription as a gift for my partner over Christmas. Although the website didn’t work as it should have, the support from Customer Service was prompt and very helpful. Will continue to buy and try different oils. Got the Rare Tuscan oil as a treat to myself. This is bitter but wonderful. Amazing product.

Hi Anna, thank you so much for your kind words. We are really sorry that you were affected by the system error at Christmas. It was definitely not the gifting experience we wanted for our new Citizens. Thanks for sticking with us. We're so happy to hear your oils have arrived and you're enjoying the Tuscan! If you'd like any help picking your next oil, do reach out to us. Best, Rachael

Stunning flavour

The Tuscan Extra Rare Olive Oil is the best EVOO ever. I am addicted! There's no going back.

Best olive oil ever

The rare olive oil from Tuscany has been an absolute revelation. I thought I tried some good olive oils, but THIS, this is something truly spectacular. Delicate and super flavourful at the same time, it truly exceeded my expectations.

Thanks so much for your kind words, Dhebora. Candice and Fabrizo make the most amazing oil, and we're so lucky to be able to showcase it in the UK.

How to become an olive oil sommelier.

Just like with wine, extra virgin olive oil has a range of profiles and flavours—as well as defects that can be uncovered. So it makes sense that we now have olive oil sommeliers trained in the specificities of what makes a good oil and how best to use it. A guide from the tasting table, by the founder & head olive oil sommelier at Citizens of Soil, Sarah Vachon. I often explain to people that diving into the world of olive oil felt like going into the world of wine, only somehow more r...
