126 Frantoio Muraglia (Oil Mill)
FIVE generations of Apulian farmers, plus a 460 years old olive tree as a Patriarch.
Muraglia: thousand-year-old terracottas, a family of innovators, ultra-centenary olive trees, a full immersion day at the oil mill.
Antico Frantoio Muraglia was born 5 generations ago, but the patriarch olive tree of the family is over 460 years old.
What is certain is that here was born the story of an oil that today can be found in the gourmet corners of 40 countries, Harrods in London, la Rinascente in Milan, EATALY in New York City and L.A., and here they told us that ours is “the glamorous face of Apulian oil”.
We safeguard the biodiversity of the agricultural landscape, we harvest by hand, we cold-press in the ancient stone millstone.
From the meeting between Muraglia and a family of potters from Puglia for 5 generations, we go back millennia, to conserve oil in terracotta jars.
A happy revolution, a viral contagion of beauty and color, an exceptional combination of the craftsmanship of our oil millers and those ceramic artists.
100% Italian product: from the cultivation of the olive trees to the bottling, everything takes place in the Apulian territory and even the iconic jars of our company are entirely made by Apulian artisans.

We’ll welcome you to the ceramics atelier produced exclusively for the Frantoio Muraglia in the city of Terlizzi.
We’ll assist in all phases of the production cycle of our ceramic jars: from the creation of the product, to its painting and firing.
Our journey will continue in the city of Andria in one of our historic olive groves in Contrada Coppe.
During the walk in our farm, an expert guide will tell us about the history, the methods of cultivation and harvesting of the olives, to then conclude with a visit to a real pillar of the history of our family: the historic olive tree over 460 years old.
Leaving Contrada Coppe, we will open the doors of the Frantoio Muraglia to tell you our secrets and show you in detail, like true professionals, all the phases of the oil production process.
During the October-January period we’ll be able to smell the scents of the oil during the pressing of the olives in real time.
The oil mill is operational all year round and it is possible to see in action the team that takes care of checking the quality of the product every day, bottling it and shipping it all over the world.
