Comments Off on Olive Pit Featured Olives of the Week – A Delicious Variety!
Amphissa – also known as Amfissa – either way you spell it, this olive is delicious. The Amphissa is a ripe, soft olive rich in taste and texture that’s preserved in a red wine vinegar brine to add an extra special touch to this already smooth and juicy olive. Of all the table olives grown in Greece, this one is the most popular! 70% of the olives served on the table are Amphissa!
Almond Stuffed – a firm, green olive from Greece that is, as the name indicates, stuffed with a crisp almond. These olives are a true delight! You get the delicious saltiness of the olive and the crunch of the almond, which we think is a true marriage made in olive heaven.
Pitted Mix – a delicious mixture of olives, we blend 5 varieties of olives together to achieve a mixture that we think you will truly enjoy. We start with a green Chalkidiki from Greece, then add salty Castleveltranos from Italy. We can’t forget France, so we add in ripe, black Nicoise, then back to Greece we go to add in Kalamatas. Finally, we finish off the mix with black mission olives from California. This mix is served in a flavorful, salty brine and should not be missed.
