What is a Bag in Box?
The Bag in Box (literally means “bag in the box”), also abbreviated as B-i-B, is simply a container consisting of a plastic bag placed inside a cardboard box.
Some may frown at this simple definition, thinking it’s just plastic. In reality, the bag is made of multi-layered plastic material, specifically metallized polyester with aluminum and polyethylene, designed for food preservation and suitable for contact with oil.

The bag is equipped with a dispenser tap that, once the special slot is opened, comes out of the box and is locked in the slot.
A convenient and practical tap, which never leaves the oil inside in contact with oxygen, thus preserving the aroma and taste of EVO oil all year round.

This is the best packaging to keep your oil always fresh and ready to use. Ideal for those who consume it regularly, but especially for those who use oil sporadically and do not want to end up with cans opened for months that have lost all aroma and taste.

Why not package oil in 5-liter cans?
The answer is simple. Cans, especially 5-liter ones, once opened, leave the oil in contact with air, and the longer the can remains open, the more the oil tends to oxidize, losing all its aroma and taste.
Using this type of packaging can nullify all the work and care from cultivation to harvest, up to storage (we bottle the oil only after receiving the order).
That’s why I searched for a special packaging, ideal for those who don’t use much oil, as well as for those who consume it daily, perfect for preserving the characteristics of the oil all year round, even when opened, and ready to be used at any time of the day for the right occasion.

How is our EVO oil made?
• Tenuta Irené EVO oil is made exclusively from olives from our centuries-old trees.
• The trees are cultivated directly by us.
• I harvest the olives while they are still green, before they reach full ripeness, and mill them the same day to obtain an oil with a fruity aroma, intense and rich flavor.

• Tenuta Irené EVO oil is not filtered, but I wait for the natural decantation of solid particles.
  • I store my extra virgin olive oil in stainless steel tanks.
• The tanks are hermetically sealed with air floats that prevent the oil from coming into contact with oxygen.
• The tanks are placed in a room that meets the hygiene and health requirements of the ASL, with controlled temperature kept stable at 16 degrees, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Finally, to deliver fresh oil, I chose to package it ONLY at the time of purchase.
Once an order is received, the oil is bottled and shipped within 24/48 hours, offering a product that maintains the flavors and aromas of freshly pressed extra virgin olive oil even after several months, with maximum quality and freshness.
