About Raineri
Raineri (also known as Antica Azienda Raineri) is a distinguished Italian olive oil producer based in Chiusanico, Imperia, in the Liguria region of northwest Italy. The company has been synonymous with excellence since 1910, producing premium extra virgin olive oils that showcase the refined character of Ligurian olive cultivation over three generations of family expertise. The Raineri estate oversees every stage of production from their 10,000 prized olive trees, maintaining complete control from harvesting to bottling. Their oils are obtained through first cold pressing—a traditional process using no chemicals or heat—which preserves the delicate flavours and beneficial properties of the olives. This meticulous approach results in oils renowned for their exceptional quality and character. The company offers several distinctive product lines. The "Primavera" (Spring Selection) features a fruity, rounded taste profile with notes of sweet almond, pine nut, and subtle artichoke. The "ORO di Frantoio" (Gold of the Mill) is an unfiltered variety pressed from fully-ripened olives, displaying a golden colour and sweet, buttery flavour that demonstrates the sophisticated side of Ligurian oils. This creamy character makes Raineri oils particularly versatile for both finishing dishes and cooking. Raineri represents the finest traditions of Ligurian olive oil production, where the mild Mediterranean climate and traditional Taggiasca olives create distinctively delicate oils quite different from those of central or southern Italy. Available at Tesco in the UK, these premium Italian oils offer discerning home cooks access to authentic artisanal quality.
