Manni Oil (MANNI OIL SOCIETÀ AGRICOLA S.R.L.) is an Italian luxury olive oil producer based in Tuscany, Italy, specializing in certified organic extra virgin olive oil carrying the prestigious Toscano PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) certification. The oil is grown on volcanic soil near Mount Amiata and is produced using zero-waste practices, positioning it as both a premium culinary product and a sustainability-conscious choice.
What distinguishes Manni Oil from most competitors is its origin in a scientific research collaboration with the University of Florence. This partnership focused on maximizing the health-beneficial polyphenol content of the oil, making it not just a gourmet ingredient but a product with documented nutritional intentionality. The brand has attracted endorsements from Michelin-starred chefs including Thomas Keller (The French Laundry, Per Se), Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Giorgio Locatelli, and Heinz Beck, as well as celebrity praise from Gwyneth Paltrow.
The product range includes several collections:
- Grand Cru – Per Me & Per Mio Figlio, the flagship line
- The Oil of Life – a core extra virgin olive oil line
- MANNI White Truffle Olive Oil Condiment – a specialty flavored condiment
- Luxury Box & Limited Edition – curated gift sets
