Ushimado Superior, an extra vir­gin olive oil pro­duced by Nippon Olive Co, has been rec­og­nized with a Silver award at the 2025 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. This pres­ti­gious event is known for eval­u­at­ing and award­ing the finest olive oils from around the globe.

The award-win­ning Ushimado Superior is crafted from Manzanillo and Mission olives, which are care­fully selected and milled in the hills of Ushimado, Japan. This region is noted for its unique cli­mate and soil con­di­tions, which con­tribute to the dis­tinct char­ac­ter­is­tics of the olive oil.

Nippon Olive Co is a Japanese pro­ducer that has gained recog­ni­tion for its ded­i­ca­tion to qual­ity and metic­u­lous pro­duc­tion processes. The com­pa­ny’s com­mit­ment to excel­lence is evi­dent in the acco­lades received at inter­na­tional com­pe­ti­tions.

The NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition is the largest and most respected olive oil com­pe­ti­tion in the world. Winning a Silver award at this event high­lights the qual­ity and crafts­man­ship of Ushimado Superior, plac­ing it among the top olive oils glob­ally.

This achieve­ment not only under­scores the capa­bil­i­ties of Japanese olive oil pro­duc­ers but also show­cases the poten­tial of regions out­side the tra­di­tional olive-grow­ing areas to pro­duce high-qual­ity extra vir­gin olive oil.
