Lametia
Olive oil · PDO · 9 municipalities
Recognised since 1998, the Lametia DOP extra virgin olive oil represents a highly localized olive-growing pocket in Calabria. Unlike broader regional designations, this protected origin is strictly confined to just nine municipalities, including Gizzeria and Curinga. Within this defined micro-territory, agricultural production remains exceptionally concentrated, stewarded by a select group of only 17 verified producers. These registered growers harvest and press their olives under the direct supervision of the Consorzio di Tutela dell'olio extra vergine di oliva a denominazione di origine protetta "D.O.P. Lametia", ensuring that every single bottle traces directly back to this specific Calabrian territory.
