Tastes like...
Fresh and buttery, with an initial aroma of fresh-cut green grass, followed by the fragrance of artichokes and tomato. On the palate, it has a smooth and delicate creamy feel, with distinct herby notes like oregano and dried basil coming through. The finish here is pleasant with a tingling cracked pepper spice.

Pairs with...
Pestos—In fresh, herby sauces like pesto, chermoula, and chimichurris! Perfect to put this over pasta, beans, potatoes.
Salads—Marinating summer tomatoes or drizzled over fruit salads.
Ice cream—Poured over vanilla ice cream with a bit of sea salt, or with crème fraîche over a chocolate cake with berries in the sunshine.
100% olives from small batches. Nothin' but the juice, baby.

Thanks to Citizens of Soil for providing fantastic olive oil and such a unique service.

Amazing Oil

Beautiful and delicate , absolutely love the taste! Will definitely be purchasing again 💕

A taste of home

The best olive oil I've had while living in the UK! I moved from Greece to London over 15 years ago now and this is the best olive oil I've had for a very very long time - a slice of sunny Greece in the uk!

Absolutely beautiful

Was hesitant at first due to cost but not disappointed this has to be the best oil I have ever tasted will definitely be coming back 🫶 seriously it’s a couple of pounds more expensive than the top ones out there in the shelves but there is absolutely no comparison,looking forward to trying the full range

I’ve never tasted olive oil like it!

Here's the method: Serves 4 Set your oven to 220°C.To make the dressing, zest half a lemon and half a grapefruit...

Magic chocolate mousse

Chocolate mousse. And a touch of gold. This stunning recipe is from Kali Jago, chef and co-founder of Palm Greens. Aquafaba is a magic ingredient, and for me personally I [Kali] love chocolate mousse and so I was so excited when I adapted one of my favourite Raymond Blanc’s chocolate mousse recipes to replace egg whites with aquafaba. What’s also so great about this, is you’re using an ingredient that is usually thrown away. This is light and fluffy, but also rich and deeply chocolatey. I ...

Roasted Carrots with Orange & Hazlenut Gremolata

A side dish fit for a festive table. A classic Christmas dish with a modern twist. With zesty, toasted notes and a good dose of EVOO, these sweet roasted carrots bring brightness and comfort to the table. Things can get hectic in the kitchen during the holiday season so we suggest making the gremolata ahead of time (max two days) and giving it a final fry off in the pan before you spoon it over the roasted carrots. This dish works well with any of our olive oils, particularly those with ro...
