ZAYTOUN'S NEW SEASON OLIVE OIL

This February, Zaytoun  – a social enterprise founded to  support Palestinian producers through fair trade – will introduce their new season, unfiltered olive oil from Palestine. 100% of all profits will be reinvested  into furthering their mission.

An organic, Fairtrade cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil, it will be sustainably produced by small-scale farmers from rain-fed and hand-picked olives.

This unfiltered oil will boast a heady palate of taste notes, including a fresh peppery flavour that is characteristic of Palestinian olives and an intense straight-off-the-press aroma. It so impressed the judges of the Guild of Fine Foods in 2021, the olive oil was granted a Great Taste Award.

The product of a natural crushing process, the olive oil will have the appearance of a cloudy emulsion and will retain more of the natural health properties, such as additional polyphenols and antioxidants. Much like fresh juice, it will be at its best consumed as soon as possible.

As a result, this oil is a limited edition: available only whilst stocks last during February to April (it launches to coincide with Fairtrade Fortnight). The bottle has a shelf life of 1 year from harvest and 6 weeks from opening. Available here: zaytoun.uk/products/unfiltered-olive-oil.
