ABOUT US

It Began with a Passion

Olive Oil Lovers began in 2012 with a love, a passion - perhaps even an obsession - with olive oil. Today, we are the bridge between thousands of consumers and the world’s best olive oil producers.

After living in and traveling around the Mediterranean basin partaking in the wonderful cuisines of the regions, each using copious amounts of locally produced extra virgin olive oil, we realized there was a huge deficit of quality olive oil in the United States.

Here at Olive Oil Lovers we aim to eliminate the confusion by offering a comprehensive selection of the best oils in the world and providing you with the critical information necessary to find the right oil for you. We’re not just an online store. We're a platform where the novice and connoisseur alike can expand their knowledge and their palate.

Producers Are Important icon

Producers Are Important

We greatly value traveling to visit the passionate producers behind the oil. They walk us through their olive groves, sharing the history of their company and passion for olive oil; we observe their meticulous production methods from harvest to press; and of course, we sample their freshly-pressed olive oil as it pours out of the tap, partaking in the pleasure of tasting the final result of their hard work.
