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.
