This Olive Oil is the stuff of legends. It is grown and made by Philip Aquith, a fourth generation Olive farmer in Ojai, California, where thousands of gnarled, centuries-old trees grow. Here, the Olives are picked by hand and pressed immediately to ensure critical freshness and rich polyphenol content. The fresh blend includes tree varieties that are virtually impossible to find in the US, such as Columella, Nocellara del Belice, Cailletier, and Lechin de Sevilla. Resulting in a vivid green Oil with vibrant, peppery notes balanced by softer fruit, and a high smoke point that’s perfect for dipping, finishing, roasting, and baking.
