MaryRuth’s unadulterated, unfiltered, raw Olive Oil is harvested and bottled in Soulinari, Greece. Since climate, geography and altitude are instrumental to grow times and quality of olives, Soulinari was chosen with care. Not only is it a few miles from the founding epicenter of the Koroneiki Olive variety, but it is far enough inland not to be affected by the Mediterranean salt air and rests at an altitude 300 meters above sea level, producing incomparable Koroneiki Olives.
Harvested by hand, our olive oil is made with a minimal carbon footprint. Our olives are processed in the absence of heat and rely on nature to recycle water and nutrients to the soil.
The impeccably rich taste of raw, non-GMO, hand-picked olives is protected by high-quality glass bottles, preserving freshness and avoiding oxidation by shielding the oil from harmful ultraviolet rays. The Ice Pressed® Method is significantly colder than traditional cold-pressed olive oils; the near absence of heat allows the oil to retain quality and taste, with no chemical interference.
