Behind every bottle of Zetouna® there is a story, a tradition, and behind it all, a culture that began thousands of years ago. All of our olive oils are hand harvested and cold-pressed in a traditional way perfected by artisans. Our single Varietal extra virgin olive oils are unique and fresh as we import them directly from the producers; we print our labels in Buffalo, NY then send them to the mills where they are pressed and bottled for us.
Tunisia is a small country in the Southern Mediterranean Sea; it enjoys a mild climate with warm sunshine, rich soils for planting, ample rainfall, and, a longer growing season that allows the olives to remain on the trees until matured and ready for picking.
You can taste the difference of over 2,000 year experience, the care for the land and the soil.
The trees are even referred to as "the green gold of the Mediterranean region", while the oil is known as "golden liquid".
Our patrimonial is very rich in olive cultivars there are 56 different varieties and each one of them has its own taste, but mostly it’s known for its extraordinarily smooth, distinctive natural fruity flavor.
