If you’re curious or simply consider olive oil a “way of life,” this enjoyable and engaging read enriches and reinforces a treasure of our Mediterranean diet: Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
Mazzini, a true professional and connoisseur of the subject, helps us in this work to find answers, reflect, and understand extra virgin olive oil — and more.
I recommend it and keep it at the mill to share with friends and customers.

A handbook that informs and describes the “world of olive oil” through a comprehensive approach to all the various issues, from production to consumption.
The choice to structure the book through questions and answers makes it accessible to a non-specialist audience.
In my opinion, the sections on quality assessment and economic/production aspects are the most successful.

Benedetta Lami –
This book contains very extensive and interesting information not only for “beginners” in the olive oil industry, but definitely also for experts as there is a lot to learn.
It is detailed and well structured, and written by an expert in the industry. A must have for sure! Well done Aldo!
Lorenzo Viganò –
Aldo’s book is not just a handbook for consumers, but a guide that organises and makes accessible knowledge that too often remains confined to industry insiders. As a professional in the field, I found in its pages a rare and valuable combination of clarity and technical rigour. I recommend this book not only to those who buy olive oil, but also to those who, like me, work every day to promote and enhance it.
Mario Turri –
I am a retired miller, and after 50 years of experience, I was truly struck by this wonderful book.
I wish I had read it when I was 20, because it answers all the questions I used to ask myself.
It’s a perfect starting point for understanding this product, which is so important for our health.
I also agree that virgin oil should first and foremost be called “OLIVE OIL.” Despite the complexity of the subject, the topics are written in a smooth and accessible way.
It’s a valuable book not only for consumers, but also for professionals in the field who need to talk about the product to their customers.
It could even be called a “DICTIONARY OF OLIVE OIL,” and I wouldn’t be surprised if it suddenly became a best-seller.
Francesco Montaldo –
Everything you ever wanted to know about extra virgin olive oil but never dared to ask.
The paraphrase of a well-known Woody Allen film perfectly captures the essence of this book — an extremely thorough compendium on the world of extra virgin olive oil.
Economist Aldo Mazzini, struck by revelation on the road to Arnasco, completely changed his life after an honourable career in insurance, becoming a highly skilled olive oil taster. Following extensive research into economic and scientific data (as well as literary sources — note the well-chosen quotations introducing each chapter), supported by significant professional experience, Mazzini has given us a work that explores every nook and cranny of this fascinating agricultural sector, a true and distinctive asset of the national economy.
This book could only have been written by a true enthusiast who, through curiosity, sensitivity, and determination, became an international expert. It is a work of popular science and passion for which words of praise will never be enough to express its true worth.
Beatrice Bernini –
This book explores the history of extra virgin olive oil, as well as production techniques, label reading, and much more. Particularly interesting is the section that offers practical and useful advice on how to recognize a good extra virgin olive oil. All of this is explained thoroughly, yet in a light, flowing, and very enjoyable style. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to discover the secrets of extra virgin olive oil and to those who wish to bring high-quality oil to their table.
Pino Cipolla –
In Aldo Mazzini’s book flow passions and feelings — the embrace of a friend, the caress of a Master, the excitement of a beginning. It is the vibrant and intense story of someone who, in today’s society, is forced to reaffirm his convictions about olive oil, his knowledge, and from this condition has crafted a cry, a personal song. It is the journey of a man between lived experience and unique emotions, conveyed through clear and evocative writing.
Like the hero of a video game, where the protagonist must collect bonus points to reach the goal and advance to the next level, Aldo moves through the entire world of olive oil, meeting and analyzing every aspect of it — in a Rossini-like crescendo of emotions and impressions.
It is a powerful yet simple story about olive oil, one that touches the deepest human feelings and possesses an epic strength that turns it into a true novel.
For those with youth to spend, Aldo’s drive, talent, passion, and ideals offer an escape from our digital solitude.
As a reader, I am moved, impressed — and above all, grateful.
