This
oil named TIBVRTINI springs from trees growing
on the ancient
land of
Villa Adriana - the
Villa of the Roman Emperor Hadrian located in
Tivoli built between 115 and 135 A.D. The
Villa
is
located in the small but exceptional olive growing
region
near Rome, in the region
of Lazio. The
trees are
most likely descendants of the olive groves
that grew
there during
the period of ancient Rome.
