Description

THE POLLA NICOLÒ OIL MILL

Toirano is a small municipality in the Province of Savona, in the Italian region Liguria, located about 70 kilometres southwest of Genoa and about 30 kilometres (19 mi) southwest of Savona.

The Polla company was created in 1875 by Paolo Polla, a professor of mathematics and art at the ‘Scolopi’ in Savona.
In 1890 Paolo Polla bought an olive oil mill (in Italian ‘oleificio’) for his son Nicolò in the medieval village of Toirano, in Via Alle Mura, 1. The mill is still in use today.
The olive oil mill started by Nicolò was then transformed into a family business when he was joined by his four sons: Paolo, Antonio, Angelo e Mario.
After more than one hundred and thirty years the new generation, Giampaolo, Paolo’s nephew, and his wife Manuela, continue in the family tradition producing in their mill in Toirano, by cold pressing, Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Taggiasca olives.
