Olive Oil Store — Top Rated Flavored Olive Oil


How many times have you wanted to prepare a dish with the unmistakable aroma of Arbequina olive oil and bond it with the freshness of basil, but you don't have all the fresh ingredients available? Our flavored olive oil from We Olive is an extraordinary fusion of natural extracts with the fantastic properties of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) that will undoubtedly help season from simple dishes to the most refined recipes.


In this blog, discover how EVOO is mixed with the best of some spices, herbs, and fruits and why consumers widely value its properties. Also, learn some simple and delicious recipes that your guests will love.


How is flavored olive oil made?


Are you one of those who like to flavor olive oil to add personality to your recipes? Not many years ago, we believed that there was no flavored olive oil made in an artisanal way, or we even thought that it was not even manufactured.


However, now We Olive Store brings you a highly valued flavored EVOO for its delicate artisanal process that preserves the fantastic benefits of each ingredient for your health. The main elaboration techniques are the following:


The traditional hot mix is a simple but delicate method of heating the best quality California Olive Oil to 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 C). The desired spices, herbs, fruits, or vegetables are carefully incorporated at this precise moment to preserve their aromas and properties.


Cold infusion. In the first phase, a part of the authentic olive oil is allowed to thicken inside a refrigerator. On the other hand, each ingredient is treated to preserve its sensory and medicinal properties, later merged with cold extra virgin olive oil and thus maintaining the freshness and flavor of each combination. This process is used mainly in producing olive oil flavored with basil and lemon.


Subsequently, each infusion is carefully packaged in opaque glass containers to prevent premature deterioration.


Characteristics and properties of our flavored olive oil


Arbequina Olive Oil


It is a delicious combination of Arbequina olive oil and Arbosana olive oil that come together to create a soft and sweet touch at the same time in your salads, fish, and seafood. Plus, it's the best EVOO for baking and is perfect for cooking, grilling, and sautéing. We recommend you substitute arbequina olive oil for butter in your vegetables, dressings, and desserts.


Due to its pleasant fruity aroma, similar to apple or banana, it is ideal for introducing children to the consumption of olive oil and for adults who want to start enjoying the flavor of certified olive oil. On the other hand, thanks to its high oleic acid content, it contributes significantly to reducing bad cholesterol and increasing good cholesterol.

Organic Meyer Lemon Olive Oil


This proprietary oil is a customer favorite for a good reason: it's luscious and bright on the palate and slightly peppery on the finish. Its lovely citrus notes make it ideal for sprinkling over baked goods like chicken, roasted vegetables, and fish. In addition, it will be a great ally in your green leafy salads: asparagus, Swiss chard, artichokes, spinach, arugula, lettuce, etc.


Organic Meyer lemons are known for their wonderful antibacterial and antioxidant properties and high vitamin C content. Some people drink olive oil with lemon in the morning to prevent or treat constipation, cleanse the body, relieve common cold symptoms, and even lose weight.

The unique aroma and flavor of We Olive's fresh garlic olive oil will undoubtedly take your dishes to another level. This essential ingredient is fantastic to enhance a barbecue of vegetables, grilled meat, fish, bruschetta, pizza, and bread.

Enjoy the exquisite and incomparable flavor of each infused olive oil.
