Last fall we released our first custom blend for my good friend Laurel from Laurel's Heirloom Tomato Plants. This blend, which has become wildly popular, won a bronze medal from the LA International Olive Oil Competition. Here's what Laurel had to say about her new blend; "We are very excited to present our new Olive Oil blend this season just in time for your heirloom tomato harvest!
Golden, mellow, smooth and buttery with a tiny touch of earthiness, this superb quality, award-winning Extra Virgin Olive Oil was created for Laurel by her friend and fellow heirloom tomato fan, Kevin Tazelaar, Founder of California Gold Olive Oil Co. in Oakdale, California.
Kevin sent us bottle after bottle of different oil blends for Laurel to try in a blind taste test. Finally, she chose a favorite; Kevin had it bottled and surprised us by naming it Laurel's Blend." If you would like your own custom "Chef's Blend" please contact us.
The Estate Arbequina olive trees are 4 years old, and were harvested for the second time. This oil won a bronze medal from the Yolo County Fair Olive Oil Competition. The California Arbequina will be discontinued for this year. If this was an oil you liked, we still have some 16 Oz. bottles left in stock, but they are going fast! Order Now! On Sale!
Our ever popular Estate Blend and Proprietor's Blend continue to win awards, with 3 medals between the 2 oils already this year, making a grand total of 18 medals since our first bottling of Proprietor's Blend four years ago!
