Heritage Extra Virgin Olive Oil by Flamingo Estate.
It’s made from a special blend of Olives grown in Ojai, California on a fourth-generation family farm. Made with olives from olive trees grown from cuttings taken from some of the oldest and most renowned Olive groves in Europe. These trees can’t be harvested with machines because the fruit will bruise. This makes the harvest slower but intentional, and the Olive Oil has a lot of complexity and nuance. During harvest, the Olives are picked by hand and pressed immediately.
2023 was a year of abundant Winter rain, mild Spring winds, and warm Summer sunshine in California. These unique weather patterns produced a lush crop of Olives. Each perfect Olive is picked by hand and pressed immediately to ensure critical freshness and rich polyphenol content. They select Olives that produce a vivid green Oil with dynamic, vibrant, peppery notes balanced by softer fruit.
Perfect for anything in the kitchen from dipping and finishing, to roasting and baking. Its high smoke point makes it super versatile.
