Why is Sous Chef's olive oil selection so special?

Oils that taste outstanding: At Sous Chef, we taste every single olive oil that arrives to us, to make sure we love it. We never stock an oil we don't think is delicious, and good value for money at its price point.
Insider knowledge: Nicola, Sous Chef Founder and Buyer, has done the homework, passed olive oil exams and blind tastings, and read all the industry leading literature on the world's best olive oils. She's always discussing production methods and flavour profiles with producers, exporters, and chefs alike - on par with the best in the industry.
They are brands with real people who care about quality and artisanal production methods: We travel to trade fairs around the world to meet the people in person who grow and produce their olive oils
They are award-winners: almost all of our olive oil producers are mentioned in the World's Best Olive Oil guides, or won medals in one of the many prestigious world olive oil competitions. You'll see some of these logos on the olive oil images.
We forge great relationships: We work closely with producers to ensure we receive the fresh harvest oils the moment they're produced.
Transparent about harvest year: You'll see that every extra virgin olive oil is labelled with it's date of harvest, so you know exactly what you're receiving.
