It is a variety that comes from the Italian region of Tuscany. The cultivation of this variety is not very widespread in our country.
The olive is oval, resembling a drop, with a medium size (approx. 3 gr), and an 85% pulp/seed ratio, which provides an interesting fat yield (around 20%). The olive tree is medium-large in size, open in shape and well adapted to areas with cold climates.
