Ultimate Organic Olive Oil
We liked how these olives tasted when we used Thrive Market’s Extra Virgin Organic Olive Oil. This extra virgin organic olive oil is made from 100% certified organic Koroneiki olives, in Crete. It’s grown, harvested, and bottled on a single estate and the quality is obvious with just one taste! I highly recommend you try it. View it here.
