OPG Marija Pesa is a family farm with a long tradition from the island of Brač, on the north side of the island between Skripi and Postira. This rich estate and oil mill was created out of a love for olives and olive oil that has been passed down for generations. Long-lived olive trees, fertile soil and a continuous tradition of olive growing on the island, are their source of daily inspiration. Olive oil of the Pesa family is obtained from the autochthonous variety Oblica, which is adorned with an intense green-yellow color, and a medium spicy, bitter and sweet taste. The production of the oil itself is certified organic (without the addition of any pesticides), and cold pressing methods are used to preserve the nutritional value and richness of aroma and taste. In addition to growing and processing olives, the family also produces homemade jams and Brač sweet delicacies such as candied almonds, dried figs and arancini. You can buy and taste their olive oils and products in specialized stores, through the webshop and in direct agreement with the family farm.

The spicy, bitter-sweet additives include in this olive oil adds to the flavor of the food that is prepared with. I loved using the oil with my steak and the taste was amazing.

When I visited this Olive Oil farm I tried the oil and it was really good. I bought a few bottles on my second day and even my friends liked them when they tasted them.
