Extra Virgin Olive Oil has continued to receive tremendous media attention in recent years for its purity,delicious flavor variety and its health benefits. With ten stores and growing fast, Paso Robles–based WeOlive has enjoyed this attention and has taken steps to become the industry leader for consumers to experience the culinary adventures of California Extra Virgin Olive Oils.

I took a recent trip to We Olive, where I got to experience more than 20 artisan produced extra virgin olive oils from every region in California. My We Olive experience was not complete without visiting tasting tables spread throughout this unbelievably charming store. Gourmet mustards, pestos and hand-crafted tapenades were enhanced by amazing aged balsamic…oh my! As Ruth Mercurio, Owner of We Olive explains, “We Olive is more than just a store with olive oil—it’s an olive oil experience”. I couldn’t have said it better myself.       

Some of the best dishes in the world share one common ingredient- Olive Oil. In an effort to celebrate this culinary wonder, We Olive has launched a culinary competition which seeks to uncover the top recipes utilizing extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). We Olive customers have come to realize — that high-quality California olive oil is an essential ingredient needed to elevate the taste and quality of their favorite recipes and can also serve to inspire new ideas in the kitchen.
