About

Our olives are handpicked within two weeks of ripening, ensuring maximum freshness and flavor. Elevate your meals with our high-quality, healthy, and authentic olive oils.

Founding Story

Melissa Dillehay, CEO and founder of Tastefully Olive, grew up in a traditional Italian home where olive oil was a staple ingredient. Frustrated with the inadequacies in the olive oil industry, Melissa and her husband embarked on a journey to find the best olives. They discovered a special region in Greece known for producing olives with an exceptionally high polyphenol level. Today, Tastefully Olive sources its olives from this region, ensuring the highest quality. We are driven by a passion for bringing the taste of the Mediterranean to your table.
