According to the myth, the first Italian land to receive the sacred tree was Sicily thanks to Aristeo, son of Apollo, who introduced its cultivation and taught local populations how to process the fruit. Nocellara Etnea is grown on the slopes of Mount Etna and is a tasty olive, with a slightly elongated elliptical shape, a green color tending to yellow and a crunchy and consistent pulp.
