Kiler Ridge Olive Farm, based in Paso Robles, California, has achieved sigÂnifÂiÂcant recogÂniÂtion at the New York International Olive Oil Competition (NYIOOC) by securÂing three Gold Awards. The famÂily-owned farm, known for its small-batch, cerÂtiÂfied extra virÂgin olive oil, was honÂored for its Kiler Ridge Tuscan, Kiler Ridge Nocellara del Belice, and Kiler Ridge Coratina oils.
The Kiler Ridge Tuscan, which received a Gold Award, is a blend of estate-grown Tuscan olive variÂeties. These olives are hand-harÂvested and cold-pressed within hours on the farm, ensurÂing freshÂness and qualÂity. Another Gold Award winÂner, the Kiler Ridge Nocellara del Belice, is proÂduced from the estate-grown Nocellara del Belice variÂety olives, also hand-harÂvested and processed promptly to mainÂtain its robust flaÂvor.
The third Gold Award was given to the Kiler Ridge Coratina. This extra virÂgin olive oil is noted for its fruity and green almond aroÂmatÂics, leadÂing into a butÂtery, creamy, and nutty flaÂvor proÂfile.
