I want to tell you about something I have never seen before.
Boxed Olive Oil.
The Village Press First Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil is an exquisite first cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil produced from handpicked New Zealand olives and packaged in a light-block box with built-in pouring tap.
Made from Barnea olives, a classic Mediterranean varietal, this oil is first press, meaning the olives are pressed once, and only once. While other producers may take oil from a second and third pressing or use chemical solvents to extract yet further quantities of oil, The Village Press philosophy is to use only oil produced from one pressing.
The Village Press Extra Virgin Olive Oil meets IOC cold-press standards for the growing and extraction process. In conforming to this policy, natural nutrient levels remain optimal and the integrity of the olive oil is never compromised.
The olive pressing process is gentle and takes place on a traditional or centrifugal olive press, ensuring smoothness of texture, depth, and purity of taste. In addition to the oil being first cold-pressed, it is also:
- Unfiltered to maintain maximum levels of potency and antioxidant benefits
- Free of additives, colors or preservatives
- Free of allergens
- Certified Kosher and Halal
- 100% produced in New Zealand
The Village Press First Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil comes in a 34oz light-block box, fitted with an anti-oxygen tap to ensure the integrity of the oil is never compromised by impurities or rancidity. Its versatile square shape lends itself to ease of storage and stability when in use, allowing chefs and home cooks to prepare meals and ingredients without having to handle a bottle.
Produced in Hawke's Bay on the East Coast of the North Island of New Zealand, the cool climate assists olive growing conditions and allows The Village Press to produce outstanding flavorsome olive oils.
I received a box of The Village Press Extra Virgin Olive Oil and was perfect for Olive Oil and Garlic Pasta.
