This Lila Jaeger Extra Virgin Olive Oil was Best in Show at the most prestigious Olive Oil Competition in the World! It is made from French and Italian Olives blended together to create an amazing boutique olive oil. 375 mL bottle.
Lila Jaeger, founder of the California Olive Oil Council, is a main figure in reigniting the California olive oil industry. While developing a picnic area for her Rutherford winery, the attention to the abandoned olive trees brought abundant fruit. She decided to make use of the abundant olives and pressed them to create her own extra virgin olive oil, which quickly received high marks at competitions! This was the point that Lila realized California potential as a leading producer of high quality olive oil. She established the California Olive Oil Council while continuing to make her amazing olive oils.
