Packed in a 320 g jar (314 ml net volume), 12 jars per case, drained weight ideal for antipasti, mixed boards and pizza topping. Distributed by Ristoris (Broni, Pavia), a Lombardy food-service specialist with ISO, BRC and IFS certifications.

What "trifolate" olives are

The term trifolato comes from the classic Italian technique of seasoning vegetables with oil, garlic, parsley and chili – historically with a hint of truffle (trifola in northern dialect), from which the name derives. Applied to olives, this preparation transforms a simple table olive into a fragrant, ready-to-serve delicatessen product. The giant format makes the olives the centerpiece of an antipasto, with firm, meaty flesh and a balanced savoury-aromatic profile.

Origin and producer

This specialty is selected and packed by Ristoris S.r.l., based in Broni in the province of Pavia, Lombardy. Ristoris selects, processes and distributes Italian specialties for professional kitchens worldwide, prioritising Italian-origin raw materials wherever possible and processing vegetables in season to preserve their natural character. The company works to international food-safety standards (ISO, BRC, IFS) across a range of more than thirty olive varieties.

Sensory profile

Large, fleshy olives with a firm bite and glossy surface. The seed-oil dressing carries the aromatics – parsley, garlic and a light chili kick – without overpowering the natural olive flavour. Green olives bring a fresh, slightly bitter note while black olives add roundness and depth; some are filled with sweet pepper paste for colour and a mild vegetal sweetness.
