United StatesWe use olive oil almost exclusively for cooking, but we save the exquisite olive oil from Bona Fortuna for “adornment,” — a drizzle over a freshly picked garden salads, hearty cooked grains like farro, and pasta dishes — where the deep flavor can shine! (Balsamic vinegar from Bona Fortuna is equally wonderful!). We found out about Bona Fortuna from a dear friend, whose family is from Sicily.
Bellisimo! Grazie mille, Katrina. Our premium Extra Virgin Olive Oils make excellent finishing oils. Combined with our Aged Balsamic Vinegar... we can't think of anything better :).
United StatesThe oil is delicious, I use it all the time. My experience working with Nora was truly awesome. She went out of the way to help me get the right product. Will absolutely be ordering again!
Grazie mille, Noah! We're thrilled to hear you've been enjoying our award-winning Olive Oils. Buon appetito :).
United StatesI had spent many years searching for an exceptional olive oil. And then I discovered Bona Fortuna Biancolilla Centinara. It’s the perfect drizzling olive oil over bread or pasta. Subtle, complex. The only olive oil that tends to elicit compliments when I serve it to friends or family. All Bona Fortuna products are outstanding and worth sampling. This olive oil happens to be of my favorites and one reason I’m a repeat customer. Impressive packaging and shipping are other reasons. I highly recommend Bona Fortuna!
Grazie mille, Janet! We're so glad we've become a hosting staple for you. Our Biancolilla Centinara is certainly a crowd pleaser and a secret ingredient for all of us here at the office. Buon appetito!

Grazie mille, Anna! We're so pleased to hear you've been loving Bona Furtuna :).
United StatesI love green, peppery olive oil. It was recommended at a gourmet type shop as the best finishing olive oil. It has an amazing flavor. I eat a salad for breakfast and it’s perfect with lemon vinegar. I’ve ordered several more.
Grazie mille, Joan! Our Biancolilla Centinara is a true testament to the verdant hillsides of our farm estate in Sicily. If you're a fan of lemon vinaigrettes, you may enjoy using our Sicilian Lemon Blossom Honey with our Biancolilla Centinara for a gourmet Lemon Honey Vinaigrette.
