CIAO! brings the vibrant spirit of Sicily to the modern kitchen, pairing centuries of olive-growing tradition with bold flavor, playful personality, and seriously good extra virgin olive oil.
CIAO! caught our attention because they have a fresh take on something Sicily has been doing for centuries: making incredible olive oil. Their story goes back 250 years, with olives grown on ancient Sicilian trees and turned into organic extra virgin olive oil just hours after harvest. But there’s nothing old-fashioned about the brand. CIAO! combines deep Sicilian roots with colorful packaging, approachable products, and a sense of fun that makes great olive oil feel right at home in any kitchen. From everyday cooking to finishing a dish with a little extra flavor, their oils are made to be used, shared, and enjoyed.
About the Producer
Sicily is at the center of everything CIAO! does. Their olives are grown on 250-year-old trees and include traditional Sicilian varieties like Nocellara, Cerasuola, Moresca, and Biancolilla. Harvested and cold-pressed within hours, the olives retain the fresh, fruity character and peppery finish that make Sicilian EVOO so distinctive. CIAO! takes that foundation and gives it a modern twist, creating a collection that goes beyond traditional EVOO with cooking oils, finishing oils, and naturally infused varieties like chili, basil, rosemary, and truffle. The result is olive oil that feels rooted in tradition without taking itself too seriously, exactly the kind of Italian pantry staple we want to reach for every day.
Sicily is raw, beautiful, and steeped in tradition. It’s where family means everything, and food is the heart of life. Picture bold, unapologetic flavors: arancini, caponata, fresh seafood straight from the Mediterranean, and sweet cannoli that will ruin dessert anywhere else for you. Every dish is a story—Greek, Arab, Norman influences woven into a cultural tapestry that’s both gritty and soulful. Sicily doesn’t just feed you; it leaves an impression you won’t shake.
