There’s nothing like a quality cooking oil to elevate your culinary creations, and we’ve partnered with La Tourangelle to bring you an extra special extra virgin olive oil you’re sure to love. This exclusive collab is single-origin, estate-grown, organic, and cold-pressed for the ultimate in smooth, California quality. It also came from a single harvest, which makes it literally limited edition!
This exclusive extra virgin olive oil (or EEVOO, if you will) was harvested just for us using organic olives grown locally on La Tourangelle’s 20-acre estate in Woodland (the same town where the first Nugget Market opened!). Cold-pressed within hours of harvest, these awesome olives create a beautiful flavor that’s buttery smooth, fresh, and bright with notes of pepper on the finish. Its mild, balanced flavor makes it a versatile choice for vinaigrettes and finishing dishes, while its 375°F smoke point lends itself to baking and cooking.
As an added bonus, La Tourangelle is just as dedicated to quality as we are! Originally from the Loire Valley of France, they opened in Woodland when the family’s second eldest son decided to recreate their artisan oil mill stateside in the early 2000s. By pairing unique French methods with custom machines modeled after the original century-old equipment, they’re able to craft artisanal oils from nuts, seeds, avocados, and (of course) olives. They’re also packaged in recyclable tin which blocks out light, keeping the oils at their freshest for as long as possible.
If you want to taste just how great a partnership of this culinary caliber can be, drop by your local Nugget Market to pick up our exclusive La Tourangelle Organic California Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Just remember, since it was all sourced from a single harvest, supplies are limited, so make sure to grab yours while you still can!
