Israeli Olive Oils

Like fine wine, fine olive oils have "terroir" – aroma and flavor that comes from the unique climate and soil of where the fruit is grown. The first time I had olive oil from Israel was through a school fundraiser. That Israeli olive oil was wonderful. Unfortunately, it was unavailable the next year – so I thought about importing it myself. The result was Israeli Gold^® Extra Virgin Olive Oils. I personally visit many producers in Israel to taste their olive oil and then select just the best to import as Israeli Gold^®. All of the Israeli olive oils I import are single-note varietals – that is, pressed from a single variety of olive – so you experience the aroma and flavor that can only come from a specific variety of olive and only as it is grown in Israel.

I am very proud of the reception my Israeli olive oils have received – including recommendations by The New York Times, Saveur Magazine, TastingMenu.com and the Jewish News Weekly of Northern California. I bottle them in stunning European glass cobalt-blue bottles both for their beauty and to protect the oils from light. Try my Israeli olive oil as a substitute for butter – on vegetables, potatoes or even drizzled on toast. It makes a tasty, heart-healthy* alternative.

I'm sure you’ll love these Israeli olive oils as much as I do.

* Limited and not conclusive scientific evidence suggests that eating about 2 tablespoons (23 grams) of olive oil daily may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease due to the monounsaturated fat in olive oil. To achieve this possible benefit, olive oil is to replace a similar amount of saturated fat and not increase the total number of calories you eat in a day. One serving of Israeli Gold^® Extra Virgin Olive Oil contains 14 grams of olive oil. Please see the product label for nutritional information on fat content.
