San Giuliano Olive Oils

About San Giuliano – Pride of Sardinia

The origins of Domenico Manca S.p.A. date back to the early 1900’s when the Manca family owned and operated a small olive oil mill within the ancient walled town of Alghero. The olive oil was sold at the market and within the Italian mainland.

In 1975 the founders grandson, Domenico took on the family business and by the mid 80’s they added other products to their line up.

It is well known that the oldest and most traditional olive oil producers have obtained excellent oil from a great range of olive types and varieties. As a result and since 1992, San Giuliano has received more than 260 awards, including the recent addition of three gold and one silver award at the New York International Olive Oil competition. They have won more awards than any other company producing olive oil.

Important to note these olive oils come in glass bottles.
