Centonze has grown olives at Case di Latomie, near Castelvetrano in western Sicily, since 1953, farming organically seven kilometers from the ancient Greek city of Selinunte. The estate takes its name from the latomie, the quarries the Greeks cut to build that city. These are whole Nocellara del Belice olives. The variety holds PDO recognition both as a table olive and for its oil. They are picked by hand in early October and cured by the Castelvetrano method: a bath of water and soda, then salt added the next day to form the brine. The cure leaves them a bright, deep green, with crunchy flesh and a mild, slightly sweet-and-sour flavor.
Real reviews from The Cheese Store of Beverly Hills Google Business Profile. Curated by Dom and his team since 1967.
Domenico and his team are fantastic. I’m a chef and I often get my supplies from The Cheese Store — unique products, carefully selected, from top Italian and French cheeses to excellent local ones.
Absolutely loved the cheese store! Everyone was super helpful and friendly. Lena helped us — she was very knowledgeable on all the cheeses: where they came from, what the region is like, what they are known for. It was like wine tasting for cheese.
Ordered several cheeses from them and the wrong items were delivered. Contacted the store and they recognized the error and immediately sent the correct order the next day without any fuss. Really appreciate the promptness and professionalism.
