'''[[Template:Denominazione d'Origine Protetta|DOP]] '''Canino is an [[Italian]] [[extra virgin olive oil]] with the following minimum chemical and organoleptic
characteristics:

- Acidity: max. 0.5%

- Peroxide number: <04.00 Meg 02/kg

- Colour: emerald green with golden highlights

- Aroma: fruity

- Flavour: decidedly fruity, with a bitter, pungent aftertaste

GEOGRAPHICAL AREA:

Lying below Mount Canino, the "Canino" controlled designation of origin
production area is located in the province of Viterbo, and includes all or part of the
administrative territory of the following communes: Canino, Arlena, Cellere, Ischia
di Castro, Farnese, Tessenano, Tuscania and Montalto di Castro. Overall, this
geographical area covers approximately 30,000 hectares.

EVIDENCE OF ORIGIN:

The growing of [[olives]] in this area, which was the cradle of the Etruscan
civilisation, goes back to ancient times. The [[olive]] grows spontaneously here, and
has provided many place names still in use, such as "Poggio Olivastro". The
Etruscans, as depicted in their vase paintings and frescoes, gathered [[olives]] by
striking the branches with long sticks to make the [[fruits]] fall from the tree. The
centuries-old [[olive]] trees, which have grown to a great, majestic size, comparable
to oaks, are evidence of the local inhabitants' ancient tradition of [[olive]]-growing,
and the gentle hill landscape is characterized by their silvery-green colour. In more
recent times, the Canino area was a large estate owned by Prince Torlonia until the
1950s, when the agricultural reform gave the lands to the farmers. With the advent
of the land reform, [[olive]]-growing expanded rapidly; in a short period of time, the
bare lands of the estate were transformed into green expanses of [[olive]]-groves.
Later, in the 1960s, a great change in [[olive]]-growing began with the introduction of
the concept of specialized intensive [[olive]]-groves. In Canino alone, 694 hectares of
[[olives]] were planted using this system. In 1965, on the initiative of the Ente
Maremma, the Oleificio sociale cooperativo (Cooperative Oil Mill) of Canino was
established. The cooperative now has 1210 members, who produce over 60% of the
area's entire production.

ACQUISITION:

[[Template:Denominazione d'Origine Protetta|DOP]] '''Canino [[extra virgin olive oil]] is produced from healthy [[olives]], harvested in the
period between October 20 and January 15 of each [[olive]]-growing season. The per
hectare yield of [[olives]] may not exceed 9,000 Kg/ha in the specialized [[olive]]-groves,
with a maximum [[oil]] yield of 18%. The pressing of the [[olives]] takes place within 36
hours after harvesting, and the only extraction methods permitted are those
mechanical processes which preserve the particular and original characteristics of
the [[fruit]].

LINK:

Canino, cradle of the Etruscan civilization, owes its fame to the [[olive]], which has
always been a fundamental part of its economy. A village of Etruscan origin, in the
Middle Ages Canino was part of the Papal States. Later it came under the rule of
the Duchy of Castro. After returning to the Papal States, in 1808 it was granted in
fee to Lucien Bonaparte, who lived in the palace which had been built by the
Farnese family. The Canino coat-of-arms is represented by a dog, in reference to
the locality, and by the three lilies of the Farnese. The spreading of the Canino
olive was made easier by the fact that the [[oil]] produced in Canino was of renowned
quality and had always been known on the [[oil]] market. Canino and its [[oil]] were the
subject of an important epidemiological study in the 1970s conducted by a team of
researchers led by Prof. Ancel Keys. The results showed that the rural inhabitants
of Canino, who habitually consume the [[extra virgin olive oil]] produced in the area,
are better protected against the risk of thrombosis than the people in Finland and
America who normally consume animal fats. Popular tradition has had an effect on
the utilisation of Canino [[extra virgin olive oil]] through the "Sagra dell'olivo" (the
Olive Festival), a rural event which began in 1939 and which takes place every
year on December 8. Besides promoting the excellent quality of the [[oil]], this event
is an occasion for meetings and conferences among top experts in nutrition and
technology. From 1989 to 1993 the Cooperative Oil Mill of Canino, along with the
Regional Agricultural Development Board, has conducted a careful characterisation
study of the local [[oil]] production. The Cooperative has also collaborated with the
most important research agencies working on the development of [[olive]]-growing and
olive processing techniques.

GASTRONOMY

[[Extra virgin olive oil]] is highly perishable and it is therefore important that it is stored correctly in order to maintain its organoleptic characteristics. It should be kept in a cool, dark place at a temperature between 14 and 18°C, away from heat sources and other foods that release odours. It should be consumed within four to six months of pressing to fully appreciate its qualities. With its piquant and slightly bitter aftertaste, the [[Template:Denominazione d'Origine Protetta|DOP]] '''Canino [[extra virgin olive oil]] is particularly suitable for using with simple, light dishes such as [[soups]], [[vegetables]] and [[bruschetta]]. This [[oil]] also maintains its characteristics at high temperatures and is therefore ideal for frying.
