Virgin Olive Oil

Pressed from fully ripe olives at the height of the Aegean season, at a paste temperature never above 37°C. Ripe fruit gives a rounder, softer oil — the everyday workhorse for cooking and baking, packed in tins for kitchens that go through olive oil by the litre.

The oil

Ripe Fruit, Gentle Heat

Our virgin oil comes from olives picked fully ripe, later in the season than our extra virgin. The fruit carries more oil and gives a milder, rounder flavour that sits comfortably in everyday cooking.

We keep the paste at 37°C or below, as food codex sets for this grade, so the oil keeps its phenolic compounds even in an everyday tin. Like every OLEA oil, it travels from branch to tin in under 24 hours.

THE KITCHEN FORMAT

Built for kitchens that cook all day

2 L and 5 L tins for homes and delis, 18 L for restaurants, hotels and catering. Tin keeps light out completely — and light and heat are what shorten an olive oil’s life: oil left exposed can lose its quality within three months.
