CASA LORETO OLIVE OIL


Talking of olive oil, which of course I haven't been, it is a fantastic year in the olive groves!

Lots of flowers earlier in the year, rain at the right time, no hail to knock the young fruit off the trees, and now wonderful sunshine. Yesterday was 35 degrees!

We plan to pick earlier this year. The beginning of November rather than around the 11th. It makes sense as the weather is usually a little warmer and the oil is more peppery which our customers seem to like.

We are planning to launch our Olio Nouvello in London around the end of the month after picking and have just received interest from South Africa!!!

We didn't want to start a new business but it seems to be starting itself!

Never look a gift horse in the mouth. It might be eating your olives.
