Verde Luxe Pressato — Basil, Crushed with the Olives

Basil, crushed with the olives. Deeper and more savory than basil ever is on top.

ORIGIN

A Pressato oil — fresh basil milled together with the olives at harvest, so the herb goes into the oil rather than onto it.

FLAVOR PROFILE

Herb-forward and true, with a savory basil depth, a subtle peppery note, and a smooth, rounded finish. Fuller than an infused basil oil, because the basil went through the press.

PAIRINGS

Caprese, pasta, grilled vegetables, pizza, eggs. Extraordinary over tomatoes and mozzarella, or stirred into a summer soup.

HOW IT DIFFERS FROM OUR INFUSED

We make basil oil two ways. This one is milled with the olives — savory, integrated, rounder. Our Verde Luxe Basil Infused carries fresh basil extract instead: brighter, cleaner, the herb sitting on top. Both are good. They are not the same.

Pop-up exclusive. This one does not ship — the infused does.
