Rock musician Farin Urlaub from Die Ärzte produced his own organic olive oil in Sardinia together with an old friend. Now the noble bottles “Stella Maris” should also be available in stores.
“Stella Maris” is an organic olive oil produced in Sardinia on the edge of a nature reserve by the sea. The idea for the project came about in 2017 when the musician visited his friend Francesco in Sardinia. “I was unhappy with my life, he was unhappy with his job, so we went hiking and talked. What do we want? Be happy, out and about in the fresh air – and if possible not pollute the earth unnecessarily, live in peace and harmony with nature, and of course listen to good music, eat even better and have fun,” says Urlaub.
From a leisurely stroll to a marketing idea
On their walk, the two found an olive field that was for sale. After a few months, they celebrated their new ownership and founded Stella Maris Società Agricola Srl. They acquired the necessary know-how for the pesticide-free production of good olive oil and began to realize their vision.
Holiday friend Francesco is a trained agricultural entrepreneur. He got his friend Nando at his side and together they were finally able to bring in their first harvest in spring 2019. At the end of 2021, the olive oil was awarded the “Euroleaf” organic quality seal by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture.
Stella Maris has been available in supermarkets since August 18th
“Stella Maris” is a mixture of the three olive varieties Bosana, Leccino and Frantoio. The oil is said to be suitable for both raw consumption and cooking. It has been available in supermarkets since August 18. More information on the homepage.
