Brief
The NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition is a presÂtiÂgious event that recÂogÂnizes excelÂlence in olive oil proÂducÂtion. In 2025, the Tuscan extra virÂgin olive oil, proÂduced by the Ojai Olive Oil Company, was awarded a Silver medal, highÂlightÂing its qualÂity and craftsÂmanÂship.
The Ojai Olive Oil Company, based in the United States, proÂduces its Tuscan extra virÂgin olive oil from a blend of Frantoio, Leccino, Pendolino, Picual, and Koroneiki olives. These variÂeties are known for proÂducÂing grassy, pepÂpery, and fruity olive oils. The olives are harÂvested and milled early in the seaÂson to capÂture the green and vibrant notes of the fruit.
All olive oils from the Ojai Olive Oil Company are made on a third-genÂerÂaÂtion famÂily farm located in the Ojai Valley. The proÂducÂtion process involves first-press, cold-pressed, unfilÂtered, and unadulÂterÂated methÂods, ensurÂing the purity and qualÂity of the oil.
The Silver award at the 2025 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition is a tesÂtaÂment to the dedÂiÂcaÂtion and experÂtise of the Ojai Olive Oil Company in proÂducÂing high-qualÂity extra virÂgin olive oils. The recogÂniÂtion places the Tuscan brand among the notable olive oils in the indusÂtry.
