Our certified organic, extra virgin, centrifuged, filtered, OLIVE OIL comes from our friends at Wilderness Family Naturals. This delicious olive oil comes straight from tightly controlled organic gardens along the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas and is produced by a co-operative of small farms. These families have worked this land for generations, producing olives which are carefully harvested by traditional methods and processed the same day they are picked. This helps assure that only the highest quality extra virgin oil is produced.

With olive oil the timing of the harvest is everything. Young olives produce a particularly low acid oil, while older olives will produce oil with higher acidity. Olives, however, can't be harvested too young or the oil will be bitter. Any leaves with the harvested olives are then removed and the fruits washed in cold water. Next, the olives are cold pressed using 27°C (80.6°F) water and gently centrifuged. This centrifugal process is not commonly used by commercial olive oil producers, however, when olive oil is produced by centrifuge, the resulting oil is a far superior product. This oil is never exposed to heat and no chemical additives adulterate the oil's natural purity. This high quality, raw olive oil is then packaged for our customers in dark-green glass containers and stored under organic sanitary conditions. Each production run is carefully tested to ensure all quality control standards are met. It has a maximum acidity of 0.8% and contains a full-bodied olive flavor. Because it is produced under cold conditions and remains raw, there is also maximum nutrient retention.
