Olio Nuovo pick up

Thank you so much for reserving a gallon (or more) of our December 2020 Dos Aguilas EVOO Olio Nuovo. We are planning to pick at the end of this week and be off to the mill at 43Ranch in San Ardo on December 6. Thus your olive oil will be ready to pick up on Sunday, December 13 from 10 to 12. Alternately you can schedule to come and pick up from my home in Soquel at 150 Lagunita Dr. on subsequent dates by going to this link:   https://calendly.com/wolfbird77/15min I will be leaving it near my front gate.

Care and feeding of Olio Nuovo

It’s best not to keep your oil in the plastic container it comes in. These jugs are only good for transportation. In that the oil is slightly acidic and breathable you don’t want it staying in plastic and you don’t want it in a clear container. I suggest you save dark green or brown wine bottles and their corks. You will need 5.25. Wash and rinse them well and let them dry out before you store your olive oil in these. Be sure to keep them out of the sun.

The Olio Nuovo will be filtered this year.  After experimenting last year I found no difference on flavor between filtered and non filtered and doing so prevents the need to rack it off the sediment after it settles. Leaving the oil on the sediment can affect the flavor in a negative way.

Thanks again, I hope our olive oil brings you health and vitality in the year to come.

Best,

Roger
