Meet the Nabali: The Ancient Olive of the Levant

If you have only tasted Spanish Manzanilla or Greek Kalamata olives, you have not experienced the true flavor of the Middle East. The Nabali is an heirloom olive cultivar indigenous to the banks of the Jordan River. Often called the "Roman Olive" because many producing trees date back to the Roman era, the Nabali is prized for its high oil content (22-26%) and superior density.

The Terroir Difference

Teta’s Olives are exclusively Nabali olives grown in the limestone-rich soil of the Jordan Valley.

- Rain-Fed: Unlike industrial irrigated crops, our trees are rain-fed, which concentrates the flavor.

- The Taste: A smooth, buttery mouthfeel with a mild, peppery finish—similar to a high-quality extra virgin olive oil.
