It is a lovely example of the cultivars with a green vegetables scent like arugula or
artichoke, balanced pungency and bitterness, characteristic of Frantoio and Leccino
which originates in Italy’s famous Tuscany region. Our climate in Petaluma-Sonoma
County, CA is much like Tuscany and here the variety makes a lovely oil.
We searched for the best California olives and picked each of them by hand at the
earliest sign of ripeness when their color is darkening from green to purple.
Since we don’t like to lose any freshness, the olives are crafted by our state of the art
equipment right there in our truck, parked right there in the grove and bottled in
seconds.
Simple. Natural.
This is our story. It’s about perfection.
Every single drop will tell you the same.
