Olio Nuovo means "New Oil" in Italian, and is a huge part of the celebration at the beginning of harvest season for olive oil. This unfiltered oil is literally harvested, pressed, bottled and to us in just a few days of the olives being picked from the tree, making it the freshest and healthiest oil you can possibly get!

Olio Nuovo is like fresh fruit & vegetables, and should be consumed right away to enjoy the fresh flavors and health benefits of its high polyphenols.

Olio Nuovo is a seasonal SPECIALTY. It is only available for a couple of months each year. It is meant to be consumed quickly (within 4 months of harvest date). Our favorite way is as a finishing oil on EVERYTHING because the flavor is soooooo delicious.
