Manuela Guatelli

PROFILO:

Manuela was born in Genoa but spent her entire childhood in Imperia. She currently resides between Imperia, Shanghai, and Bangkok.

She represents the fourth generation of can makers and is actively involved in the “Guatelli Museum”, which houses the Family Collection of Italian Olive Oil Cans. This collection comprises over 6,000 pieces of olive oil cans and lithographic stones, which provide important evidence of the flourishing industry related to the oil trade that developed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

In 2006, Manuela relocated to Asia with her husband and four sons. Despite the distance, she has not forgotten her roots. She has promoted the prestige of extra virgin olive oil, the history and flavors of Mediterranean cuisine beyond national borders through organizing Italian cooking classes, on-demand chefs and catering.

Her passion for extra virgin olive oil has its roots in her family; in fact, her father dedicated his life to the production of oil cans. My father, who crossed Europe every week to sell his cans, would return home on weekends with stories and anecdotes about this fascinating industry.

Having a global vision of the oil market, he could grasp even the smallest nuances of it, which made me want to be part of this wonderful world. In recent years, she finally managed to crown her passion by attending the ONAOO Course and becoming a Professional Taster in 2024. Manuela is actively engaged with several Italian associations abroad, promoting the history, culture, and art of extra virgin olive oil tasting on a global scale.

Giuseppe Fiorentino

Giuseppe was born in a small town in the province of Foggia, San Giovanni Rotondo.

For work reasons he moved to Campania, where he still lives today.

Strongly tied to the memories of his beloved Puglia, Giuseppe decides to open a farm to be able to carry on the family business to which his father has dedicated himself for more than 50 years; in the middle of the Tavoliere delle Puglie, every year 2,400 olive trees are finely selected in order to offer the best extra virgin olive oil.

In order to enrich his knowledge, Giuseppe decides to start his training course in the ONAOO School in 2018 and ended in 2021: after passing the exams of the Advanced Course, Giuseppe obtains the qualification of ONAOO Professional Taster.

In addition to the training activities, Giuseppe participated in the ONAOO Meeting in 2020 and other online tasting activities also organized by the School.

EUI RYANG LEE

Since 2020, I have been dedicated to promoting and distributing Italian extra virgin olive oil in the Korean market.
I started a direct import business, carefully selecting high-quality artisanal producers with the goal of introducing Korean consumers to the excellence of Italian EVOO.

Currently, I supply my products to department stores and fine dining restaurants, and I collaborate with renowned chefs to highlight the use of EVOO in cuisine.

My work combines passion, expertise, and a strong commitment to spreading the culture of quality olive oil.
The training courses I completed with ONAOO have been a fundamental turning point in my professional journey.

The knowledge and accurate information I gained during these courses have greatly supported my current activities, helping me communicate the value of extra virgin olive oil with greater awareness and expertise.
This training continues to be an important resource that enriches my daily work and strengthens my commitment to promoting the culture of quality olive oil.
