The « Picholine », or the recognition of Nîmes’ olive

The « Picholine », or the recognition of Nîmes’ olive

Olives and olive oil are natural and healthy products that have always existed and were used in the past to cure many illnesses and maintain men’s health.

The largest olives are picked in September for immediate consummation and then in December the rest of the crop are gathered in for the manufacture of olive oil. The oil is obtained by simply pressing the olives.

Its intense aroma together with its hazelnut flavour is much appreciated by all gourmets !
