Best Sellers through the years: O Olive Oil


The Meyer Lemon Olive Oil was one of our first products.   We chose this product and company because they are the original maker of Organic Citrus-crushed Olive Oil.  This method makes for the highest quality Citrus Olive Oil. 
Over the years we have slowly added their whole line of Olive Oils and hand crafted varietal wine vinegars.  O Olive Oil is one of the few remaining vinegar makers in this country using the old world Orleans method of natural aging in wood barrels rather than mechanically force aging the vinegars. 
O’s product line has been featured in top food magazines including Food and Wine, and Gourmet.   Saveur  magazine selected the O Ruby Grapefruit Olive Oil to its prestigious list of 100 international favorites.   O has also been featured on the Food Network, Top Chef, and ABC Good Morning America.  
O products are a favorite of home cooks and professional chefs alike.  The vinegars and oils are in the kitchens of Jacques Pepin, Charlie Trotter, Michael Mina, Sarah Moulton, Wolfgang Puck, Charlie Palmer, Cat Cora, and Tom Colicchio among others.
Look at our recipes page to see just how many wonderful ways to use this Organic Hand Crafted product.

Best Seller through the Years: Restaurant Lulu

Lavender Honey From Gourmet Goods To You


This San Francisco based restaurant with its gourmet product line was created from their philosophy that fresh, seasonal ingredients, and authentic flavors are key to eating well.  They have been on our site from the beginning.  We have slowly introduced many of their products through the years.  Their Fig Balsamic  and sweet and savory honey’s have been top sellers for our company.  Meyer Lemon is an ingredient used for many items in the product line,  and “why not” it is the best Lemon out there.

We have added marinades, seasonings, grilling sauces, and honey over time.   The Herbes de Provence adds a touch of the French countryside to roasted meats, potatoes, and vegetables.   The Lavender Honey is used to add a touch of floral sweetness to toast, scones, and croissants.  It can be baked into muffins, cakes, and stirred into steaming cups of tea.  It is also ideal for encouraging sweet, crisp skin on roasting poultry.  The product line has Grilling Sauces to compliment any meat or vegetable.   The White Truffle Honey adds the savory earthiness enriches cured meats, salty cheeses, and crusty bread, and makes an ideal glaze for roasted meats, fowl, and game birds.
The Lulu product line works well together and also pairs with our other product lines.  The attractive packaging and the fact that these items were created based on an extremely successful San Francisco restaurant make it a great gift for any foodie.

Introducing our new citrus tapenades. Traveling to North Africa and the southern coast of Spain we fell in love with the flavors of black olives drenched in blood oranges, olive oil, and spices. O Blood Orange Olive Oil and kalamata olives honor this savory citrus dance. We finish the flavor notes with capers, orange zest, and bay leaf, a classic. California meets the exotic flavors of North Africa. Just ask your grilled rack of lamb.
