Oliva Olei, a peppery and creamy olive oil from Ayvalik olives

In collaboration with Oliva Olei

In July 2025 I had the pleasure of tasting the extra virgin olive oil from Oliva Olei, a young brand founded in 2024. The packaging alone, an elegant dark tube, shows that every detail has been thought through.

THE OIL

• Hand-picked green olives of the Ayvalik variety
• From the Izmir region, by the Aegean Sea
• Cold-pressed, below 27 °C
• Acidity of only 0.31

This olive oil is peppery and creamy, ideal for cold dishes: salads, bruschetta, a good tomato… It has already made my personal top 10.
