We are pleased to announce that our company, Alberta Iannicelli - Ceraso 1898 , has obtained two prestigious awards at the "Le Forme dell'Olio 2025" competition organized by Olio Officina:
- Gourmet Oils - Gold
- Special Historical Value Award
"Congratulations! We are really happy for the appreciation received and the interest shown by the jury towards you, remembering your work of recovery of historical images."
These awards celebrate not only the quality of our organic extra virgin olive oil, but also our dedication to preserving and enhancing our long family tradition.
For over 200 years, the Iannicelli family has been cultivating olive trees in the heart of Cilento, producing excellent oils that combine history and innovation.
Our labels: a tribute to history
The labels of our "Progresso" and "Avanzamento" oils are inspired by the old family cans dating back to 1800, a period in which Enrico Iannicelli exported the oil produced by Ceraso to South America. This link with the past is a source of pride for us and a guide in the continuous search for quality.
