Olive Oils
Thick and often cloudy when young with color ranging from emerald green to buttery gold, extra virgin olive oil makes a dish a sensual and healthy pleasure. California olive oil, due to its freshness, is appreciated and praised for its healthy ingredients: rich in highly nutritious essential minerals and trace elements, with a generous supply of vitamin E, an abundance of monounsaturated fats, and antioxidant polyphenols. Fresh olive oil is often described as the perfect food. All our olive oils are from California and certified by the COOC (California Olive Oil Council) as Extra Virgin. We guarantee that they are the freshest available. (Don't believe it? Read this) Read What does Extra Virgin mean?Is this a gift? Add a gift card. |
