In Cilento, Marsicani Builds Modern Oils from Deep Rural Roots

Nicolangelo Marsicani blends family heritage, advanced milling technology and a philosophical mindset to craft high-quality extra virgin olive oils in the Cilento region.

His farm, located in a protected and pristine environment, embraces sustainability both as economic viability and environmental responsibility. The mill is powered by solar energy, and all byproducts are reused, turning leaves and pits into valuable resources.

Over the years, Marsicani has transformed the family mill into a modern, technologically advanced facility, capable of precisely controlling every stage of production and collaborating with top-level producers.

Despite this forward-looking approach, tradition remains central: from the ancient Pisciottana olive trees to memories of the old mill as a community gathering place, where winter fires offered warmth and connection.

Today, work is shared with technicians and tasters to create increasingly distinctive sensory profiles and meet the expectations of consumers seeking complex, aromatic and health-oriented oils.

Marsicani believes the true challenge lies in cultivating olive trees well and that communicating olive oil is essential: it must be authentic, using the right words to connect producers and consumers.
