The harvesting of the olive is still carried out in the most ancient system, Olives are harvest only using their hands when not fully ripe. Within few hours from the harvesting, the olives are milled in a large container by using millstones, the olive paste obtained in then distributed, through a dispenser, onto a natural fibre filters.
