The Cooperativa Oleificio Mosse is located in Montefiascone, in the province of Viterbo. Founded in 1961 by a group of farmers in the locality of Le Mosse, it was established with the aim of creating an alternative to private mills, which often undervalued the olives that had been so painstakingly harvested.
In 1996, the Cooperative moved to its current facility, which allowed the introduction of state-of-the-art machinery and more efficient management of the precious extra virgin olive oil. Today the Cooperative has 250 members, who deliver an average of approximately 1,000 tonnes of olives each year.
The Cooperativa Oleificio Mosse is deeply connected to the territory and local olive-growing traditions. For over 60 years it has produced an extra virgin olive oil of the highest quality, the result of a skillful combination of the cultivars found in the area: predominantly the traditional Caninese (80%), alongside Frantoio, Leccino, and Pendolino.
The olives are processed within 12 hours of harvest, using a continuous two-phase system with cold extraction, to preserve all organoleptic characteristics.
Currently, in addition to the traditional “Classico” EVO, the Cooperative also produces a certified “Organic” EVO and a single-variety “Caninese” EVO.
The Cooperativa Oleificio Mosse is a true point of reference for the community of Montefiascone: a place where tradition, innovation, and passion come together, producing a unique and inimitable product for three generations.
