Design

The aesthetic is defined by large, vibrant Halkidiki olives sourced directly from Greek farmers and prepared in the UK. These pitted olives are presented in a sleek, lightweight pouch or jar that highlights the rich green of the fruit and the flecks of Mediterranean-grown sweet basil, making them a visually appealing addition to any charcuterie board or gift hamper.

Durability & Shelf Life

Built for freshness, these olives are preserved using traditional Mediterranean methods, including a slower fermentation process rather than pasteurization. This artisanal approach ensures the fruit retains its firm, meaty texture and "pop," providing a minimum six-month shelf life from arrival when stored unopened in their protective marinade.

Care

The olives are best maintained when kept in a cool, dark environment; for the happiest fruit, ensure they stay fully submerged under their oil blend to prevent drying. Once the seal is broken, they must be stored in the refrigerator and are typically best enjoyed within two weeks to maintain the bright, herbaceous integrity of the basil infusion.

Notable Features

This gourmet snack is gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan-friendly, featuring a clean ingredient list of pitted olives, sunflower oil, and extra virgin olive oil. A unique "desalination" process using crisp Lake District water ensures the olives are perfectly seasoned rather than overly salty, resulting in a balanced flavor that pairs beautifully with mild cheeses and crisp white wines.
