Masturzo Antonino

We have been operating in the field of EXTRA-VIRGIN OLIVE OIL for over one hundred years, a fascinating, demanding sector, especially when one has QUALITY as its goal. Our work is inspired by the immense, innate passion for this wonderful product that has united and involved the various generations of the MASTURZO family for a century.

We have a long but simple history behind us: we were born in Arola di Vico Equense, a charming village on the Sorrento Peninsula nestled between the Lattari Mountains, known for its fresh, healthy air, its pure water springs, and its temperate, pleasant climate.

As far back as the second half of the 19th century, our ancestors produced dairy products in the family dairy, wine, walnuts and oil on the farms they owned to sell them in the nearby city of Naples and, from the beginning of the 20th century, in America. Over time, perhaps as a natural vocation, the family’s attentions focused mainly on olive oil.

Thus a first production site was set up in Naples, then in Caserta and finally, after the Second World War, in Venosa in Basilicata, the birthplace of the poet Horace, who on several occasions celebrated the bucolic vocation of this land. He is a Professional Taster of ONAOO since 1989.

Moforis George

George was born in Athens in 1978. He graduated with a Master of Science in Civil Engineering in 2002 and worked as a construction project manager until 2012.

For the past 10 years, he has developed an in-depth knowledge and appreciation for the cultivation and production of high quality olive oil, after undertaking a number of accredited training programs in Italy and Greece.

His understanding of the olive fruit and talent in sensory analysis has driven him to consistently produce EVOOs that have achieved top positions in most international olive oil competitions for his company Hellenic Fields.

In 2019 he began his journey of becoming a certified taster, which he completed by achieving the ONAOO Professional Taster Qualification in 2022. Currently he is honing his skills and knowledge even further by participating in tasting panels, as well as expanding his company’s portfolio of EVOOs with new varieties and blends.
