South Africa produces some of the best Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) in the world and we want everyone to know about it.

Like wine, EVOO (pronounced ee-voo) is influenced by cultivar, terroir, climate and the maker. It is a gift of nature that needs to be nurtured in the groves and through the processes of harvesting, extraction and storage. It is more than a commodity, it is a product of passion.

Why buy imported oil when our producers offer world class, fresh oil, and your purchase supports the local agricultural industry and creates employment. It's a win-win situation!

Get to know our local producers and compare the delectable differences in styles of oil and their uses, fresh or cooked! Keep trying different oils and enjoy the myriad of health benefits.

Look out for the printed version of the guide, available FREE from our participating producers, or…
