Our S&G Estate Mission EVOO has earned the official “Certified Extra Virgin” seal of the California Olive Oil Council by meeting stringent standards for production, analysis and taste. For its very first bottling in 2010, it earned a Silver Medal at the Los Angeles International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Competition! Compared to others, our 4.5-acre olive orchard may appear small but we have always been strong believers that quality always tops quantity. Our 650 Mission Olive Trees are handpicked during harvest and our olives are produced within one hour after in our own estate mill. In addition, S&G Estate Olive Oil is unfiltered. This allows us to preserve the natural richness of our olives and provide our customers with 100% natural Olive Oil.
