Frequently Asked Questions
Product Information
What's special about "cracked" olives?
Cracking olives is a traditional technique that allows the marinade to penetrate deeper into the fruit, enhancing the flavor in every bite. Unlike pitted olives, which can lose some of their texture and flavor intensity, cracked olives maintain their full, meaty structure while absorbing more of the marinade's rich, natural ingredients like lemon, herbs, and sea salt. This results in a more robust, flavorful olive experience compared to pitted varieties.
What is the double-marination process?
Our double-marination process is key to creating a bold, flavor-packed olive. After the first round of marination, the olives are allowed to rest, absorbing the initial infusion of flavors. We then repeat the process, allowing the olives to soak up even more of the natural ingredients like lemon, herbs, and sea salt. This layered approach ensures that the olives are thoroughly infused with flavor, giving them a richer, more intense taste than olives marinated just once.
Why do the olives still have their pits?
Leaving the pits inside our olives helps preserve their natural texture and flavor. The pit acts as a barrier, keeping the olive firm and plump while protecting the fruit’s oils and essence. Olives with pits tend to have a richer, more robust flavor compared to pitted olives. Plus, the pits add to the authentic, traditional experience, reminding you of olives enjoyed straight from the grove.
Where are the olives grown?
Our delicious olives are sourced from Jordan, a region celebrated for its high-quality olives. The fertile soil and ideal growing conditions produce olives known for their rich flavor and perfect texture, making them truly exceptional.
What does "Natural Flavoring" mean?
The natural flavors in our olives come from 100% real ingredients used during the marination process, like lemons, bay leaves, and sea salt. While our olives are packed without marinade, the rich, natural flavors remain—giving you a fresh, flavorful experience with no artificial additives.
Are your olives gluten-free, vagan?
Yes, all of our olives are naturally gluten-free, vegan, and low in calories. We take pride in producing our olives without genetically modified ingredients or herbicides, ensuring a clean, wholesome product made with care and attention to natural farming practices.
Are your products keto-friendly?
Absolutely! Our olives contain less than 1g of net carbs per serving, making them perfect for a keto diet, which typically limits carb intake to under 50g per day.
Is your packaging recyclable?
The box your olives come in is fully recyclable. However, the individual olive bags aren’t recyclable just yet, but we’re actively working on sustainable solutions—stay tuned!
