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 indigenous oblica trees from which the oil is obtained require intense care to ensure the quality of the oil is maintained. I learned that an intense green color is added to the oil to improve the taste.

I learned about how the olive trees are grown, the duration of their growth, and the oil production process. I came to understand the work that the family of this olive oil place behind the production process.

I bought some products such as olive oil and their homemade jams and candied almonds. My husband loves the food I cook with this oil, my kids on the other hand don't stop eating the jam apart from spreading it on bread. Thank You to the farm owners.
