Signature Sicilian Estate Blend Olive Oil | Award-Winning | DorotaBotanicals

The Olive Oil That Made Us Legendary

From Ancient Sicily to California's Golden Hills
This isn't just our signature oil - it's our masterpiece. Born from a love affair between ancient Sicilian heritage and California's perfect climate, this award-winning blend captures three of Sicily's most prized olive varieties, now thriving under the California sun. Each drop tells the story of traditions that traveled across an ocean to find their new home.

The Gold Medal Difference
At the 2025 New York International Olive Oil Competition (NYIOOC), our Signature Sicilian Estate Blend was awarded a Gold Medal. This accolade places our supplier among the world's finest olive oil producers. One taste and you'll understand why the judges were captivated.

Where Three Legends Meet
This is where the magic happens - three heritage Sicilian varieties come together in perfect harmony:

Nocellara - The buttery foundation. These large, golden-green olives bring rich, creamy notes with hints of tomato and artichoke, creating that luxurious mouthfeel that coats your palate like liquid velvet.

Biancolilla - The "cashmere glove" of flavor. This ancient variety adds delicate sweetness with whispers of almond and fresh grass, bringing those ethereal floral notes that make this blend so sophisticated.

Cerasuola - The bold backbone. Medium-intense and beautifully spicy, it contributes robust notes of ripe tomato, thistle, and thyme, giving the blend its exciting peppery finish that awakens every taste bud.

The Taste Experience
Close your eyes and take that first taste. The initial wave is pure liquid sunshine - grassy, vibrant, alive with the essence of California mornings. Then comes the complexity: layers of flavor that dance and evolve on your tongue. That gentle burn at the back of your throat? That's over 377.6 mg/kg of polyphenols - nature's most powerful antioxidants telling you this is the real thing.

It's assertive without being aggressive, complex without being confusing. This is olive oil that commands attention and rewards those who truly taste.

Where This Oil Transforms
This isn't your everyday finishing oil - this is your secret weapon for dishes that demand excellence. Drizzle it over grilled steaks and watch how that peppery kick cuts through the richness, adding layers that make every bite more compelling.

On roasted vegetables, it doesn't just coat them - it transforms them into something memorable. That earthy, tomato-forward complexity brings out flavors you didn't know were hiding in simple ingredients.

For bold salads with bitter greens, this blend stands up beautifully, its buttery Nocellara base balancing the assertive Cerasuola spice. And when you dip crusty bread into a small pool of this liquid gold, you're not just eating - you're experiencing what centuries of Sicilian wisdom tastes like.

Crafted for Perfection
Hand-harvested November 1, 2024, and cold-pressed within 90 minutes - because timing is everything when you're capturing perfection. Grown on an organic, certified California estate using authentic Sicilian trees, these olives are pressed below 27°C to preserve every precious compound.

This is olive oil made the way it should be - with patience, precision, and profound respect for the fruit.

From The Estate to Your Table
Estate grown and bottled in California, this oil represents the best of both worlds - ancient Sicilian genetics meeting California's pristine growing conditions. Every bottle captures that perfect November 2024 harvest, when three varieties reached their peak simultaneously.

100ml of concentrated excellence that will change how you think about olive oil.

Perfect Pairings That Elevate Everything
This bold blend becomes even more spectacular when paired with balsamic that can match its intensity.

For the Ultimate Experience:
Classic Traditionally Barrel-Aged White Balsamic - The refined complexity of true barrel aging creates an exquisite balance with this oil's bold character. This is pairing perfection for those who appreciate the finest.

Classic Traditionally Barrel-Aged Dark Balsamic - Deep, complex, and luxuriously smooth from years of patient aging. The ultimate complement to this award-winning oil's sophisticated flavor profile.

For Everyday Excellence:
Traditional Dark Balsamic Glaze - On a budget but don't want to compromise on taste? This everyday option still delivers that classic sweet-tangy balance that makes this oil shine. Perfect for daily cooking without breaking the bank.
