What a Festive Feast to Remember!
Every year, we open the doors of our Bolton unit for one of our favourite events of the entire calendar: the Annual Christmas Tasting Extravaganza.

What began as a small local gathering has grown into a hugely popular festive celebration, with guests travelling from near and far to join in the fun. And each year, it somehow becomes even bigger, brighter, and more magical.
✨ A Warehouse Transformed
In the week leading up to the event, our talented and dedicated HQ team work their festive magic, transforming our everyday warehouse into something almost unrecognisable. Twinkling lights, Christmas sparkle, beautifully styled displays, and of course—an irresistible lineup of dishes showcasing our olive oils and balsamics.
Every dish on the menu is dreamed up, tested, and cooked at home by our team members, who never fail to amaze us with their creativity and passion. The result? A mouth-watering spread that our customers look forward to all year long.
🎁 Gifts, Goodies & Gorgeous Ideas
Alongside the tastings, we put together a range of beautiful gift ideas—perfect for friends, family, colleagues, or simply as a festive treat for yourself. From carefully curated sets to seasonal favourites, there’s something for everyone.
🥂 A Celebration of Community
One of the things we love most about hosting this event is the chance to meet so many lovely customers—some who’ve been with us for years, and others who are discovering us for the very first time. And because the event is completely free, it’s our way of giving back and saying a heartfelt thank you for your loyalty and support.
Guests get to sample our entire range of delicious products, enjoy superb homemade culinary creations, listen to Christmas classics, and sip on a glass (or two!) of chilled prosecco. The atmosphere is warm, festive, and always full of smiles.

Noelene Gillatt: "The best olive oils and balsamic vinegar bar none. We spent a lovely hour at their Bolton HQ open house weekend yesterday, sampling their sumptuous range of balsamics and oils and sampling some lovely food, demonstrating how to use these in anything from mushroom stroganoff to the most delectable chocolate cake. Their range of products are staples in my larder"
