Nocellara d’Italia - Gentle Sicilian Flavour, Everyday Heart Care
Description
Fresh almond, green banana and a velvety finish. An early-harvest Sicilian olive oil that makes eating well a daily pleasure.
Attimo’s Nocellara d’Italia brings together fruity elegance, naturally occurring polyphenols and a beautifully rounded texture. Its gentle character makes it an inviting introduction to exceptional extra virgin olive oil, and a versatile favourite for anyone who enjoys a softer finish.
Made exclusively from Nocellara olives grown in Sicily’s Belice Valley, it is harvested early and cold-pressed within hours. Every bottle connects you directly with its producer and the distinctive character of its origin.
Why it belongs in Heart Flow
A heart-conscious routine can start with a simple kitchen habit. Olive oil provides predominantly unsaturated fats. Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats helps maintain normal blood cholesterol levels.
Use Nocellara in place of butter in suitable dishes, make it your dressing staple, or finish vegetables and pulses with a generous splash. Its approachable flavour makes this an easy habit to enjoy within a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
Alongside its fats, Nocellara contains olive polyphenols, including oleocanthal and oleacein. These plant compounds are part of the oil’s distinctive composition, bringing a botanical dimension to an everyday food.

Sicilian character, from grove to table
The Belice Valley on Sicily’s western coast has a longstanding olive-growing tradition. Here, Nocellara develops the generous fruitiness that makes it such a pleasure at the table.
Attimo works directly with its producer, keeping the connection between grove, harvest and bottle clear. The result is an oil with a recognisable origin and a flavour you can return to every day.

An effortless finishing touch
Spoon over warm pasta, roasted courgettes or a bowl of white beans. Dress tender leaves, enrich scrambled eggs, or serve alongside fresh bread.
