New harvest extra virgin olive oil from Tuscany!

The 2019 extra virgin olive oil from Tuscany is finally hitting the markets!  Most Costco’s have it so check it out!  Look for the 1 liter green glass bottle marked “Kirkland Toscano 2019” on the label.

The growing area is the southern coast of Tuscany.  Always remember when buying extra virgin olive oil from Italy:  the bottle should have an official DOP or IGP seal on it, which comes from the local consortium.  The grower, presser and bottler are all subject to and follow strict guidelines before they receive the DOP or IGP labels to put on the bottles.  The year of harvest should also be printed on the label, most recent being most desired.  It’s your guarantee of quality and authenticity!
