The Gift of Oil is so named due to an ancient Greek legend in which Athena gave the gift of an olive tree to Zeus to win a competition. A newly built city would be named after the God or Goddess who gave the inhabitants the greatest gift.
Well, you can guess what was deemed the greatest gift, certainly if you’ve ever visited or heard of Athens! Olive oil and the olive tree have long been considered a symbol of peace, wisdom and prosperity, so what better way to treat your loved ones than with gift bags, or gift sets of olive oils and balsamic vinegars. Who knows, they may name a city after you!
We sell many premium olive oil gifts online. Browse through our taster collections, a box containing 3 mini bottles of olive oil and balsamic. You could design a gift bag, choosing exactly which products your loved one will enjoy.
