The Italian company, which employs traditional methods to produce extra virgin olive oil from 6,500 Coratina and Cassanese olive trees in Puglia, won again this year for its Delia Audace medium blend.

Upon hearing of the award, owner Domenica Bruno remarked that the company had to overcome challenging harvest conditions during the season.

"Climatic conditions in particular have been quite challenging this year. Nevertheless, we managed to achieve excellent results anticipating the harvest," Bruno said.

The NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition, held each spring in New York, is the world's largest and most prestigious olive oil contest and its annual listing of award winners is considered the authoritative guide to the year’s best extra virgin olive oils.
