Muraglia Intense Fruity Extra Virgin Olive Oil is made exclusively from Coratina olives grown around Andria in Puglia, southern Italy. Bold, aromatic and full-bodied, this single-variety Italian olive oil has a distinctive character, with pronounced green vegetable notes and a lingering peppery finish.

Its complex aroma brings together fennel, dill, artichoke, pepper and hay. On the palate, rich vegetal flavours develop into a well-balanced bitterness and a persistent, pleasantly spicy finish. An excellent choice for anyone who enjoys a robust extra virgin olive oil with plenty of character.

Muraglia processes the olives within 24 hours of harvesting and extracts the oil at temperatures below 27°C. The 5L bag-in-box format provides a generous supply for regular use, with an internal bag that helps limit the oil's exposure to air as it is dispensed.

How to enjoy

This intensely fruity Coratina olive oil is particularly well suited to dishes that benefit from a strong, peppery finish. Drizzle it over grilled vegetables, bruschetta, hearty soups, roasted potatoes or beans. It also pairs beautifully with bitter greens, grilled meats and simple pasta dishes.

The generous 5L format makes it a practical choice for households that use extra virgin olive oil regularly, as well as professional kitchens looking for a distinctive Italian oil.

Extra virgin olive oil (coratina)

Producer Learn more about who made this product.

Affectionately known as capatosta, a nickname that in Italian means stubborn, the Muraglia family has been looking after their land and its olive trees for over five generations, down to the tiniest detail. Not far from their olive groves, the century od stone mill works non stop during the harvest, allowing Frantoio Muraglia to crush their olives within 4 hours from picking, quite the rarity. The Coratina and Peranzana olives are the varieties chosen by Frantoio Muraglia as the epitome of the Apulia region, offering both intense and medium fruitness, to suit every table, cooking style and cuisine.

FAQs Answers to common questions about this product.

What is Coratina extra virgin olive oil?

Coratina is an olive variety closely associated with Puglia in southern Italy. It is known for producing robust extra virgin olive oils with pronounced bitterness, peppery notes and intense green, vegetal flavours. Muraglia's Intense Fruity oil is made entirely from Coratina olives grown around Andria.

What is the difference between intense fruity and medium fruity olive oil?

Intense fruity olive oils generally have more pronounced aromas, bitterness and pepperiness than medium fruity varieties. Muraglia's Intense Fruity Coratina is particularly bold, with notes of artichoke, fennel and pepper. It is a good choice when you want the flavour of the olive oil to stand out rather than blend quietly into a dish.

What are the advantages of bag-in-box olive oil?

Bag-in-box packaging uses an internal bag housed inside a protective cardboard box. As oil is dispensed, the flexible bag can collapse, helping reduce contact with air compared with repeatedly opening a large bottle or tin. The outer box also protects the oil from light, making this format particularly useful for regular, high-volume use.
