Olive Oil
Lone Oak produces fresh, flavorful oil. Unlike wine, olive oil is ready immediately for consumption at harvest and has its freshest flavor. Our oil is unfiltered. Olio Nuovo is highly prized for flavor in Italy at harvest! It is important to understand olive oil will gradually change in flavor losing the fresh component, and becoming more buttery with time. Lone Oak recommends buying fresh oil soon after harvest. Store in a cool, dark place and consume your oil within a year.
Lone Oak has a lab scale press to test its olives for oil flavor and determine the optimum time of harvest. We can press each varietal separately to gauge the flavor and timing of each varietal’s oil. This information influences both our choice of trees for production fields and our choice of harvest date. Every year we can pick samplings, blend, lab press, and optimize harvest for flavor.
Our Tuscan Blend Olive Oil achieved a silver medal, at the 2009 California Olive Oil Council Competition.
