Tastes like...
Fresh and buttery, with an initial aroma of fresh-cut green grass, followed by the fragrance of artichokes and tomato. On the palate, it has a smooth and delicate creamy feel, with distinct herby notes like oregano and dried basil coming through. The finish here is pleasant with a tingling cracked pepper spice.

Pairs with...
Pestos—In fresh, herby sauces like pesto, chermoula, and chimichurris! Perfect to put this over pasta, beans, potatoes.
Salads—Marinating summer tomatoes or drizzled over fruit salads.
Ice cream—Poured over vanilla ice cream with a bit of sea salt, or with crème fraîche over a chocolate cake with berries in the sunshine.

FAQs

The Olive Oil Club delivers a range of delicious oils throughout the year. At this time, you can't sign up for a subscription to just one oil, though you can order larger formats, sets, or our bottles when you need to top-up.
Our producers all farm organically to the EU standard without any synthetics or chemical "cides". However, as we only work with small farms, some have not yet been certified—which is why we cannot legally label them as “organic”, unless it has the certification. Many of them, though, are well on their way in the conversion and audit process (it takes a few years), so we hope to share more soon.
Currently, our Greek oil from Sparta and our Italian oil from Tuscany are the only oils in our range that can carry the organic certification on its label.
Welcome you to the fascinating, yet very confusing world of extra virgin olive oil. We wrote an article all about the term "cold-pressed" if you'd like to read up in detail, but in short, it is just a marketing buzzword, as by legal definition in the EU, extra virgin olive oil is extracted without any heat or chemicals and only comes from the “first pressing” (more like squeezing) of the olives—which is exactly the definition of our products.

What’s also so great about this, is you’re using an ingredient that is usually thrown away. This is light and fluffy, but also rich and deeply chocolatey. I use coconut sugar because I prefer unrefined sugars, but is also has a deeper flavo...

Roasted Carrots with Orange & Hazlenut Gremolata

A side dish fit for a festive table. A classic Christmas dish with a modern twist. With zesty, toasted notes and a good dose of EVOO, these sweet roasted carrots bring brightness and comfort to the table. Things can get hectic in the kitchen during the holiday season so we suggest making the gremolata ahead of time (max two days) and giving it a final fry off in the pan before you spoon it over the roasted carrots. This dish works well with any of our olive oils, particularly those with ro...
