Tre Olive Early Harvest Press Extra Virgin Olive Oil Highly Recommended by Whom You Know! Made in Italy!
We have heard time and time again about the potential health benefits of using olive oil instead of other oils in our cooking. Now everyone is buzzing about a new study that shows a Mediterranean diet actually reduces the chance of getting a heart attack by 30 percent! All this evidence shows that we should choose olive oil over all other oils. Now, how do we decide which olive oil is best?
Tre Olive makes it very easy to answer to that question. Their Early Harvest Press Extra Virgin Olive Oil is absolutely delicious. I drizzled it over a Fluke Carpaccio and Shrimp and Scallop Crudo. The oil really brought out the flavors of the seafood, making for a dish that I look forward to making again! The oil is extremely smooth, yet it has a bit of sharpness to it that will have you begging for more! I will be using this oil in anything and everything I make from now on!
"Liquid Gold", as Homer called it, sparks the imagination of every chef and beyond, to our own kitchens. The Early Harvest Press Extra Virgin Olive Oil, single Estate First Cold Press is quite the mouthful, but worth it. The early harvest olive oil from Tre Olive is a "bit sharper in taste" according to their website. But read "sharper" as "greener", because these olives are picked a few weeks earlier. The amount of antioxidants is higher, the fruit of the olive is green, with more chlorophyll, so the oft-documented side benefits are more potent. It homogenizes beautifully in a vinaigrette, and is beautiful for dipping a crusty bread. I used it to make some bruschetta, and it lends a delightful taste and aroma to the mix. For those interested, the recipe includes garlic, tomato, red wine vinegar, vanilla, basil, and olive oil. The hint of vanilla brings out the taste of the olive oil, adding to it's smoothness. If you're doing a sauté of the garlic, to release its magic, you'll notice that the perfume -filled air in your kitchen takes you to the hills of Calabria, where this olive oil is grown and pressed. 500 ML of Italian, and it's all yours!
Lately, I've been cooking a lot more with extra virgin olive oil. I was getting dangerously low on mine when the Early Harvest Press Extra Virgin Olive Oil made its debut in my life. I used it in a sausage, onion, and potato dish I made. It has never tasted so good. I couldn't believe the flavor it had. It was a little sharper than most, but I liked that about this olive oil. I had plenty left over and brought some in for the secretary at school, and she raved about it and wanted to know what I had used to flavor it. I can't wait to try this extra virgin olive oil with different recipes. I know I'll be using more of this and plan to purchase more. I highly recommend it!
Cooking with exquisite olive oil is really a make or break for many dishes. Tre Olive, a southern Italian company, has some of the most delectable olive oils. The love of nurturing the trees has been passed down from generation to generation. Their Early Harvest Press Olive Oil is perfect for enhancing many dishes. A little bit sharper in taste really brings out the flavor of vegetables, chicken and pasta. These olives were harvested earlier to attain this extra flavor. I loved using it to sauté my chicken, potatoes and vegetables. It helped the dish achieve a more sophisticated flavor. I paired it with a Pinot Gris and enjoyed a fabulous dinner with my husband. I also tried a chicken and pasta dish and it made the flavor a little more unique.

From our recent harvest, our Early Harvest Press Extra Virgin is a bit sharper in taste as the olives were selected a few weeks prior to the olives used for our Signature Estate Extra Virgin.

Our family has been growing olives and making Extra Virgin Olive Oil in the Calabria region of southern Italy for generations.
In 1934, we opened our first olive mill, and local farmers have entrusted us with their harvests ever since.
The TRE OLIVE philosophy is simple: work hard, treat our customers like family, and create high quality, great-tasting, extra virgin olive oil from some of the finest hand-picked olives in Italy.
In 1970, members of our family left Italy for Western Massachusetts to accept better opportunities. We made sure to return frequently, keeping our strong family bond intact. One thing we always brought back from our visits was our family olive oil – the exceptional extra virgin olive oil made from olives grown on our land, picked and pressed by our family. No other olive oil can come close to that amazing taste.
In 2009, during a visit to the family groves, three (TRE) cousins discussed how we could avoid selling our oil to the large companies who often dilute olive oil with lesser-quality oils from around the world. We know the pride we feel when we share our oil with others and tell its story – our story.
From this proud tradition, TRE OLIVE was born.
100% Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil from olives grown in Italy, picked in Italy, pressed in Italy, and poured in Italy.
TRE OLIVE is the love of family - TRE OLIVE is the love of premium quality olive oil - TRE OLIVE is the love of sharing it with others.
We bring this love to you, direct from our groves in Calabria. Adopt an olive tree, become a part of our family, share in our traditions and passion for olive oil and taste the difference love makes.
