Azienda Agricola Il Cascin

Azienda Agricola Il Cascin cultivates the steep terraces of the Ligurian coast, where Taggiasca olives yield a sweet and fragrant extra virgin olive oil within the Riviera Ligure DOP, spanning 186 municipalities. Established in 1996, the company combines traditional methods with the precision of contemporary technology, seeking in the oil mill the minerality that the coastal soil imparts to the drupe. The terraced landscape, carved from the slopes by dry stone walls, necessitates almost entirely manual labor, which is palpable in the glass and the bottle. Here, craftsmanship is not a label but a geographical condition: the steepness dictates the timing, the variety defines the profile, and each harvest also serves as land maintenance. The house's oils and wines have garnered accolades from critics and international competitions, and remain a testament to a way of life on this coast, where cultivating means, first and foremost, holding the earth to the hillside.
