Great Taste Award 2020
“These large, beautifully green olives are tangy and delicious. The brine has a bright, acetic aroma and the piquancy of the peppers fills the air. The flesh is firm, with a notably buttery texture for a pitted olive and the gentle salinity lifts the natural sweetness. The heat from the peppers is gentle but builds into a fiery finish that is long lasting. A delicious, easy-to-eat olive.”
Serving Suggestion
