I Contadini Seasoned Pitted Leccine Red Olives 230g
I Contadini Seasoned Pitted Leccine Red Olives 230g is an authentic Southern Italian antipasto featuring premium Leccino olives, a celebrated olive variety native to Italy, carefully seasoned according to traditional Apulian recipes.
Produced in Puglia by I Contadini, these ripe red-brown olives are harvested at optimal maturity, naturally cured, pitted for convenience, and then marinated with Mediterranean herbs, spices, and extra virgin olive oil. The result is a flavourful table olive that perfectly captures the rustic character of Southern Italian cuisine.
