The maker

Favuzzi

Favuzzi is a Montreal-based importer of fine Italian foods founded in the early 2000s by Michel Favuzzi, whose family has lived by the rhythm of the harvests near Italy's Adriatic coast for generations. On a trip to Europe his uncle Damiano, a chef and farmer, encouraged him to import a PDO extra virgin olive oil, and the adventure began. The basil oil is made the old-fashioned way: fresh Coratina olives are cold-pressed together with fresh Italian basil, so the flavour is built in at the press rather than infused afterward.
