Product Notes
“U-Rè” — meaning “The King” in Ligurian dialect — is the flagship extra virgin olive oil from Al Frantoio di Aldo Armato, crafted exclusively from the prized Taggiasca olive variety grown in the ancient groves above Alassio on the Ligurian coast. Delicate, fruity, and extraordinarily refined, this is Ligurian olive oil at its finest.
Taggiasca olives are celebrated for producing oils of exceptional elegance — low in bitterness, with a silky texture and a complex bouquet of ripe fruit, fresh almonds, and a gentle herbaceous finish. U-Rè is cold-pressed to preserve every nuance of the olive’s character.
The Producers
The Armato family has been involved in the olive trade and production of olive oil for multiple generations. Aldo Armato — modest in nature but fiercely proud of his family’s long tradition — built a legacy rooted in the ancient Taggiasca groves of Liguria. Today, his daughter Alessandra and her husband Giordano Mazzariol continue that legacy with new energy and an unwavering commitment to quality.
