Luretík
Certified Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Santa Ynez Valley, California
At Luretík we believe that the highest quality extra virgin olive oils begin with good stewardship of the land.
We are a small producer, and our fully certified organic grove consists of 900 trees comprising 9 Italian varieties. As owners, we are committed to sustainable farming practices that will ensure the continued health of the land for years to come. Our select varieties - Nocellara del Belice, Cerasuola, Carolea, Cerignola, Cipressino, Coratina, Frantoio, Itrana and Pendolino - have adapted beautifully to Luretík’s loamy-clay soils and the temperate Mediterranean climate of Santa Barbara County.
