If you could squeeze an entire Italian olive grove into a tin, you would get Nudo Olive Oil. Living by a “just one more tree” motto, Nudo works tirelessly to produce authentic flavored and extra virgin olive oils by superior cold-press methods. Olives are hand-harvested from a village in Abruzzo and driven to a communal press, where they make friends with locally sourced produce and herbs. As Nudo likes to say, the flavors become “joined at the pip.” These days, when 4 out of every 5 bottles of Italian olive oil are not what they claim to be, Nudo lets you trace yours -- right down to the very olive tree.

About Nudo Olive Oil
Nudo Olive Oil was born when Jason Gibb and Cathy Rogers bought an abandoned Italian olive grove in 2005. Since, they have cultivated not only world-class olive oil, but a preservation of traditional farming methods as well. They’re passionate about olive oil, and they proudly encourage any and all hugging of olive trees. Now, you can too: Nudo has gone beyond the oil to create a tree adoption program. Become an olive tree parent, reap the oil it produces, and get even closer to their traditional, artisanal process.
