Lemon Olive Oil
from $7.99

Our Fused, early harvest, Chilean green lemon (Eureka Green Limonato) was made by crushing green Arbequina olives alongside estate grown green Eureka Lemons in April!  The result is an incredibly complex, pungent fusion. By harvesting unripe lemons and olives grown side by side, we achieved maximum green lemon aroma in this powerfully fragrant and floral oil.  Super concentrated, a little bit goes a long way! We firmly believe that such precision makes our April 2025 production entirely unique from anything else out there.

Pairs beautifully with Peach White Balsamic, Honey Ginger, Suyo Cucumber, Tangerine, Wild Blueberry, Strawberry Rosé, or Watermelon Rosé Balsamic for everything from vibrant vinaigrettes and seafood marinades to refreshing spritzers and fruit-forward glazes.
