After a recent trip to Chile, Ross and his wife made this great culinary discovery;
"The same reasons that made the country Chile a wine and fruit leader in the world now apply to olive oil.
Elvio Olave is a wine world innovator who's recently turned to olive oil. Best, he's got Chile's magnificent geography on his side. Andes on the east, desert on the north, Antarctica on the south, and the Pacific on the west provide protection from disease and pests, as well as allowing Olave to grow many different olive varieties in the same region. A veritable UN in a bottle, Elvio is cultivating and blending pan-European varietals to produce his oil: Frantoio, Coratina, Arbequina, and Leccino. His oil is fresh, very fruity, and unique, with some high bitter tones in the finish. Very impressive."

Ross adds: "The bottles we brought back were very grassy and had hints of fresh herbs."
