Gourmet Olives-A special treat when you really want the best.

There are countless cured Olives on the market nowadays but not all of them are equal in quality. Many modern processed olives have gone through countless different manufacturing processes so that there is little left that can in any way be called natural. There are often many chemical processes that take place to cure either green or black olives. What is good news though is that we have a choice.

There are now many very high quality cured olives available. Yes they are more expensive but the difference in taste can be quite remarkable. We should be trying to get the best quality produce we can afford. Or make the excuse of buying for our loved ones as a fantastic gift. I'm sure we will be offered a little taste! When it comes to olives the extra cost of a high quality product can reall be worth it.

By purchasing the best quality from a reliable source we will hopefully be enjoying Olives that have a much more reputable history. Personally i would like my Olives to be handpicked and inspected for quality (something which happens less and less nowadays). Ideally they will be cured with no chemical processing or enforced ripening. I would like organic whenever possible as the amount of spraying some Olive trees gets is quite unbelievable. Trust me i have seen it here in Spain. The amount of spraying is becoming more every year as once the process is started it gets harder to stop. Our trees have never been sprayed by us and the Olives they produce are fantastic.

As more of us become more demanding in the quality we expect hopefully this will result in more organic products and a much higher quality of products for us to enjoy. Try Gourmet Olives and see what the difference can be. Better yet buy some raw olives and cure them yourself for atrue knowledge of the curing process and to ensure you know exactly what you are eating. There is nothing more satisfying than consuming an Olive that you have lovingly cured at home.
