Salvatore Mirisola Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 100% organic.About 10 kilometers from Sicily's southern seacoast, on the breezy highland called Milinciana, Salvatore Mirisola's olive trees thrive. These trees descend from those that came to Sicily with the Greeks more than two millennia ago. Like their ancient forebears, they too seem to enjoy the favor and protection of the god Zeus Morios, for they produce fruit of exceptional quality from which comes an oil that is nothing short of divine. Of course, we have not only the gods to thank for this beautiful oil. Signore Mirisola, his son Tito, and his skilled workers have much to do with its realization also. Taking maximum advantage of a microclimate that is unfailingly sunny, warm, and breezy, and chalky soils ideal for olive tree growth, the Mirisolas cultivate their groves in strict accordance with the European Union's organic farming requirements. They harvest the fruit by hand at the moment of perfect ripeness, and crush and press it within 2 to 6 hours of harvest. The result is absolutely pure, impeccably fresh, perfectly balanced organic extra virgin oil full of flavors and aromas that speak of the land and people from which it came. As one would expect from a food that is so simple and natural, the character of the oil varies a bit from harvest to harvest. Color: Light Green. Aroma: Intense fruit, with scents of mild almond and green apple. Flavor: Green apple flavor with pepperiness and a soft, bitter finish. Montere Grove, Organic Extra Virgin Olive OilMoutere Grove oil has complex grassy aroma with hints of herbs and tropical fruit. In the palate, the oil has rich, mellow flavors that develop to a lingering peppery aftertaste. Moutere Grove, near Nelson on the northwest corner of New Zealand's magnificent South Island, is widely recognized as one of the premier producers of organic, extra virgin olive oils on the planet. This tiny organic farm was established by country Doctor Ed, and his wife, Liz Scott in 1996. The Scotts are committed to producing exceptionally high quality, organic, extra virgin olive oil. Their 50 acre farm lies in the picturesque Moutere Valley, an area where, before the olive trees were planted, the land was used only for pasture. Ed and Liz only grow traditional Italian varieties, typical of the famous blended oils from Tuscany. The unique climate and clay soils of the Moutere Valley (renowned for the quality of the fruits and vegetables grown there) near Nelson, add their own character and intensity to the flavours of the oil.

Armando Mansure, 100% Organic Extra Virgin Olive OilThe olive oils produced from Armando Mansur's olive trees, near the foothills of the Andes, in Mendoza are some of the greatest organic extra virgin olive oils produced anywhere in the world. Armando's grandparents were immigrants to Argentina in the last years of the 19th Century - his father came from Syria, and his mother from Sicily. Farmers from the old world, they brought their work habits and dreams to Argentina. Because of their diligence and drive, their family has prospered. For decades, the Mansurs have been recognized for growing exceptional quality foods, and wines. But it was not until the 1986 that they found their passion and began to produce great olive oil. In 1995, sensing a need for higher quality, more natural products, Armando converted their production to organic methods, and today the result is magnificent!

Villa Stabbia, Organic Olive OilVilla Stabbia is a family run estate in Tuscany, with three generations of the Marchi Bartolozzi family involved in the production of low acid, full-flavored extra virgin olive oil. For years the farm has followed the principles of organic agriculture and has produced oils of remarkably high quality. The olives, from 4 traditional Tuscan varieties, are carefully handpicked from the trees; unlike on more commercial farms, where machines are used.
