Made in Italy
All EXAU olive oil is made in Calabria, Southern Italy where our family has been growing olives along the Ionian coast for almost 100 years. The trees benefit from the Mediterranean weather, their native climate.
Our trees range in age from 3 to 100 years old planted over three different generations. We also source fruit from other small, family-owned estates.

Who Produces EXAU Olive Oils?
We do! Our founders, Giuseppe and Skyler are both olive farmers and producers. We exclusively use fruit grown on family-owned estates in Italy to produce EXAU EVOO.
We also wrote a book called The Olive Oil Enthusiast, a dedication to our favorite cooking fat and a reliable resource for our industry!
