Fucking Hot Chilli Oil is the flavour bomb in a dropper your kitchen is crying out for. Playfully named but using high quality cold-pressed ingredients, Fucking Hot Chilli Oil will breathe new life into pizzas, pasta sauces, and beyond. Use sparingly to pep up your eggs or to add some fireworks to chocolate desserts, like chocolate ice cream petit-fours. Apply with caution - a little goes a f***ing long way!

The Galantino family business was started in 1926, when Vito Galantino, an extra virgin olive oil taster, transformed a nineteenth century mill house into an olive mill, with a dream to make a world-class product.

The Galantino family embraces ancient craftsmanship with modern innovation; traditional stone grinders are used alongside cold-extraction centrifugation systems. In 1990, Vito’s son, Dr Michele Galantino, produced the company’s first flavoured oils after he rediscovered the ancient technique of crushing the olives together with fresh citrus, herbs, or chillies, resulting in delicious, natural flavours, without any added essences.

Galantino uses olives from the family’s 47-hectare “La Fenice” estate, located on the coast of the Adriatic north of Bari in the beautiful mediaeval town of Bisceglie in the Apulia region of southern Italy, and from 2000 trusted growers. Their “La Fenice” estate is home to ancient olive groves of over 15,000 Ogliarola and Coratina trees: a stunning visual feast spanning as far as the eye can see. 

The olives are harvested between 15th October and 31st December, when they are at their perfect stage of ripeness, which is judged using the time-honoured technique of hand-shaking branches, then gently catching any falling fruit in canvas “hammocks”. This dedication to meticulous husbandry, with careful pruning, drip-irrigation and ultra-modern pest control detection, reduces the use of phyto-pesticides to an absolute minimum. Every batch undergoes careful laboratory-analysis before being tested and approved by the Oil Master, resulting in an exceptional extra virgin olive oil with the very best organoleptic properties.  

Galantino’s extra virgin olive oil is Organic Farming-certified and has Terra di Bari Castelo del Monte P.D.O. The company holds IFS (International Food Standards) and BRC Food (British Retail Consortium) certificates. Galantino obtained ISO 14001 environmental certification in 2009 (cert. CSQA No 21435) and has been awarded the Sistema Qualità Certificato since 2002 (CSQA Certificate n. 1024).  

Galantino has won a catalogue of highly coveted awards, including the Montiferru Award in Sardinia, two Golden Lions, two Ercole Olivario, the Orciolo d’Oro, Olio Award, Biol, Apuliafood, and the Los Angeles Gold Medal.
