The New York International Olive Oil Competition is the world's largest and most prestigious, so we are delighted that our Select (Taggiasca) EVOO won Gold, and our Estate (Arbosana) EVOO took Silver in 2024, officially making these oils among the best in the world!

Last year we were lucky to have great weather, and to harvest before the early frost—the only downside to last year’s weather pattern—which had a lot to do with how great the oils turned out. Like wine grapes, olives benefit from hot days, cooler nights, and judicious use of water, and we had all of that last year. It takes a lot of consistent work—on the farm, in the mill, tank room, and bottling—to create olive oil of this quality, and we're super proud of our team.

These oils are limited in quantity, so if you already love them, consider upgrading to the 3 or 9-Liter, so you don't run out, and if you haven't tried them, and wonder what the best olive oil in the world tastes like, we highly recommend our Classic EVOO Tasting Sets, which includes each of the award winners, along with our House Blend, which contains a healthy does of both of these varietals in the blend.
