Our Extra Virgin Olive Oils and Balsamics aren’t just gifts—they’re a statement.
Add a personal note and choose exactly when it arrives. Because a gift like this deserves more than just a delivery—it deserves ceremony.
Better than a bottle at the door
A bottle of wine is gone by the end of the evening. The Heritage Pairing stays: a 500ml bottle of Piro and a 250ml bottle of Bonini Gustoso, a condiment aged eight years, in a gift box.
Who it's for
The host. Used for weeks after the dinner, on roasted vegetables, on cheese, on fruit, on whatever is on the plate.
The friend who cooks. Someone who notices ingredients, and will notice these.
A client or colleague you want to thank. A considered alternative to a bottle of wine, right for guests who don't drink, and a thank-you that stays in the kitchen for weeks.
Why this pairing
Two Italian traditions, each a matter of patience. Piro is picked early, while the olives are still green, and pressed within hours. Gustoso is left to age for eight years. One brings a green, peppery character, the other depth and balance.

What's inside
- Piro Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 500ml. Organic and single-origin, from Tuscany. Led by Olivastra Seggianese, a cultivar native to the area.

How to use them
Pour Piro over roasted vegetables and finish with a little Gustoso. Serve Gustoso with aged cheeses and fresh fruit, and Piro with good bread and a pinch of sea salt.
Piro opens with fresh-cut grass, tomato leaf and artichoke, then the elegant bitterness of green almond and a long, peppery finish. Gustoso is deep, balanced and velvety.
Recognized by those who judge olive oil
Piro: gold at the New York International Olive Oil Competition every year since 2020, Best in the World at Flos Olei 2021, and poured at Eleven Madison Park. Piro is USDA Organic and Kosher, and Bonini Gustoso is Kosher.

Step-by-step guide (PDF) (opens in a new tab)
Is it a good gift for someone who doesn't drink?
Yes. Our gift sets are a considered alternative to wine: right for guests who don't drink, and a gift that stays in the kitchen for weeks rather than a single evening.
Are the products organic and Kosher?
Piro and Cucino are USDA Organic and Kosher certified, and the Bonini condiments are Kosher certified. View the Kosher certificates. (opens in a new tab)
How should the recipient store them?
Store the olive oil and the condiments in a cool, dark place, away from the stove and direct sunlight, with the cap closed between uses. None of them need refrigeration, and the olive oil should stay out of the fridge.
How long do they keep?
Every bottle of Piro and Cucino carries its harvest date and lot number. Piro keeps its peak quality for at least 24 months from milling, but it is made to be enjoyed every day, not saved for a special occasion. The Bonini condiments keep for years when stored well, and taste their best within a few years of opening.
Do you help with corporate gifting?
Yes. You can send to a team or a client list on your own, each recipient with a personal message. For a printed card in each box, or help planning a larger order, contact us at corporategifting@olio-piro.com.
Taste the Difference
Pour Piro and you'll notice the difference. Here is what goes into it.
| Detail | Piro | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Cultivars | Five, led by Olivastra Seggianese, native to the area, with Frantoio, Moraiolo, Leccino and Coratina | A blend built around a local olive gives Piro its character |
| Harvest | Picked early, while the olives are still green | The source of the green, peppery flavor |
| Harvest to press | Cold-pressed within hours of harvest | Less time between tree and mill keeps the aromas intact |
| Polyphenols (lab data) | 600 mg/kg | Behind the bitterness and the long, peppery finish of early-harvest oil |
| Acidity (lab data) | 0.18% | Extra virgin olive oil can measure up to 0.8% |
| Filtration | Double filtration, developed with Italy's National Research Council (CNR) | Clarity of flavor |
| Bottling | Under nitrogen, in UV-resistant tempered glass from the Dolomites, with an anti-oxidation cap | Protects the oil from light and air |
| On every bottle | Harvest date and lot number | You know exactly what you are pouring |
| Peak quality | At least 24 months from milling | The same taste it had at the mill |
Figures are laboratory values for Piro.
Taste the Difference: Bonini Condiments
Time changes a condiment. The same craft, left to age for three, eight or twelve years, gives three different characters. The description above shows which of them this set includes.
| Detail | Vivace | Gustoso | Affinato |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aged | 3 years | 8 years | 12 years |
| Character | Lively and fruit-forward, sweet and tangy in balance | Deep and balanced, with a velvety texture | Smooth and complex, with remarkable depth |
| Best with | Salads, vegetables, marinades, everyday dishes | Roasted vegetables, grilled meats, aged cheeses, fresh fruit | Cheeses, fresh berries, desserts, a finishing touch |
A few drops are enough.
