Fara in Sabina · Lazio · Farm since 2006
Not a slogan. It is why, for three generations close to this land, we choose the harder path: picking at the right moment, organic farming when it costs more, nights at the mill. An extra virgin like this is made no other way.

The labour
The terraces of Fara in Sabina do not forgive. Grass is cut, not killed with chemistry. Once the olives were taken only by hand; today a mechanical arm lets us finish the hill on the right day, without leaving fruit on the ground. Anyone who wants ordinary oil can do otherwise. We will not.
How we workThe will
We could make more, faster, with less bent backs. We chose the opposite: fewer litres, more character, no shortcuts. Ambition is not volume. It is that whoever tastes a Blanchi recognises Fara in Sabina — and will not settle for ordinary extra virgin again.

The line of time
We did not invent the olive in Sabina. We have always been close to it. Three generations on the same land; in 2006 the farm took today’s name and shape. Organic farming made the work harder — and the oil, at last, worthy of this hill.
Read the storyAlways
Before the brand there was already the family: three generations in Fara in Sabina, the same trees, the same way of being on the hill.
2006
The house oil becomes a farm. Same land, same name, the decision to take it beyond the family — with the rigour it deserves.
Organic
No herbicides, no forcing. An inconvenient choice: make less, and an extra virgin worthy of the trees.
Today
Mechanical arm, cold extraction, EVO filtering and storage under nitrogen: the finest organic oil of Fara in Sabina in the world.
The land
North of Rome, between the Tiber valley and the Lucretili, Fara in Sabina is one of Italy’s oldest olive lands. Here Carboncella, the native cultivar, and lean stony soils yield intense, balsamic, unmistakable oils.
The territory
The method
01
Once we picked only by hand. Today the arm shakes the canopy onto the net: faster, intact fruit, at the mill the same day.
02
Extraction below 27 °C, EVO filtering, rest in steel under nitrogen. So aroma, polyphenols and the vintage remain.
03
No synthetic chemistry: living soil, pruning, grass and the pace of the seasons. More labour. Truer oil.
