After visiting the orchard and touring the plant is Croatia. I feel in love with these oils. I am proud to support a company that is honest about its products and business practices. Thank you for Drusk for importing these remarkable products.

Makes everything better
Adds delicious flavor to everything from salads to veggies to meats. Great as dipping oil as well. Nothing compares
The turning point in the Chiavalon estate’s extra virgin olive oil production was the introduction of an innovative early harvest technique, previously unknown in the region. The Chiavalons pick olives when a third have ripened, processing them within hours using a modern cold press method in a controlled environment. This approach preserves the oil’s purity, reflecting the fruit's quality.
The Chiavalons' collaboration with MORI TEM s.r.l., a leader in olive milling technology, quickly established the Chiavalons as a hub of the Istrian olive industry. Their advanced equipment features a cooling system that maintains a stable temperature of 66 to 70°F throughout production, ensuring exceptional oil quality.
To further protect the quality of the olive oil, the Chiavalons store it in stainless steel containers filled with inert gas, preventing oxidation and maintaining a steady temperature of 16°C. The Chiavalons have also perfected the art of blending, skillfully combining various monovarietal extra virgin oils to create unique fragrances and flavors that form our signature blend.
“Today, in the world of globalization and huge corporations, one rarely knows who the one is that guarantees a product's quality. When it comes to our extra virgin olive oil, the one is actually - us, the entire Chiavalon family, that strives and guarantees with its name that the extra virgin olive oil which reaches you will be of the utmost quality and the best one you have ever tasted. It is when tradition embrace the contemporary and the ancient allows to be awakened by some new energy, that the inspiration knows no boundaries.”
