Coveted | McEvoy Ranch Olive Oil

McEvoy Ranch Olive Oil

It may be surprising to know that some of the most delicious olive oil in the world comes from a 550 acre ranch in Northern California. McEvoy Ranch, located in the rolling hills just west of Petaluma, produces a Tuscan style extra virgin olive oil that is medium bodied with aromas of fresh olive fruit and a rich, slightly peppery finish.

The oil is emerald in color at the time of harvest and then mellows to a bright greenish gold. Certified organic, McEvoy Ranch’s 2010 Traditional Blend olive oil comes in a 375 ml bottle for $22 or 1 gallon jug for $176.

A coveted gift for foodies or aspiring home cooks, McEvoy Ranch features a range of custom baskets. Our favorite pairs a bottle of their Traditional Blend olive oil with a jar of McEvoy Tuscan Blend Table Olives, a stainless steel olive oil spout and a small handmade dipping dish all packaged beautifully in a decorative metal tin.

The gift basket, which retails for $50, is available online or at the McEvoy Ranch store in the Ferry Building in San Francisco.
