Full Olive - Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Aged Balsamic Vinegar Set

The Full Olive 500ml EVOO & Double Barrel Aged Balsamic Signature Duo!

The Perfect Union of Heritage and Flavor

At Full Olive, we believe that the best flavors aren't just found; they are matched. Our founder, Adam, spent years traversing the high-altitude groves of Mendoza, Argentina, seeking a flavor profile that didn't just stand alone but sang when paired. The "Made for Each Other" Duo is the culmination of that search.

Before committing to our signature Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Adam tested it relentlessly alongside our Double Barrel Aged Balsamic. He was looking for a specific synergy: a "roundness" in the oil that could cradle the "velvety tang" of the vinegar. This bundle isn't just a pairing of two products; it is a curated culinary experience, the exact combination that defines the Full Olive kitchen.

Upgrade Your Salads and Every Dish in Between

Whether you are a seasoned chef or a home cook looking to upgrade your salads, this duo is your secret weapon. The "Made for Each Other" set is designed to be the foundation of your kitchen counter. From a simple drizzle over crusty sourdough to a complex marinade for grilled meats, these two bottles bring a professional-grade depth to any dish.

Imagine a healthy, delicious balsamic and olive oil dressing that requires no extra seasoning because the base ingredients are already so complex. Use it to finish roasted root vegetables, brighten up a bowl of pasta, or provide the acidic backbone to a fresh Caprese salad. The possibilities are as vast as the Andean foothills they come from.

The Gold Standard: Full Olive 500ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil

The heart of this duo is our 500ml EVOO, a first cold-pressed, high altitude harvest masterpiece. Crafted from 100-year-old trees in the rocky soils of Mendoza, this oil is led by Argentina’s signature varietal: the Arauco. Often referred to as the "Malbec of olives," the Arauco provides a robust, peppery character that is balanced with Mediterranean varieties to create a smooth, round mouthfeel.

Why it’s exceptional:

• Immediately Harvested & Cold Pressed: To ensure the highest quality, our olives are hand-harvested and cold pressed within hours. This locks in the low acidity and preserves the vibrant freshness that defines our brand.

• High Polyphenol Content: Because we focus on an early harvest, our oil is packed with antioxidants and polyphenols, giving you a healthy olive oil option that supports a wellness-focused lifestyle.

• Tasting Profile: You’ll notice a radiant golden-green hue and aromas of fresh-cut grass, green tomato leaf, and almond skin. On the palate, it begins with a harmonious richness before evolving into a lively, clean finish.

The Soul of the Duo: Double Barrel Aged Balsamic

To find a partner for such a bold olive oil, we needed a balsamic with equal "spirit." Our balsamic vinegar begins with the concentrated must of Ugni Blanc grapes. Unlike mass-produced vinegars, ours undergoes a sophisticated double-barrel aging process in both French and American oak.

This aging adds layers of woodsy complexity and soft vanilla undertones. We then slowly reduce the vinegar over an open flame, a traditional method that concentrates the natural sugars and creates a velvety, creamy texture. The result is a delicious balsamic that offers a brighter, higher acidity than traditional syrupy glazes, making it the perfect foil for the richness of our Arauco oil.

The Science of the Pairing

Why do these two work so well together? It comes down to balance. The low acidity and buttery "roundness" of the Full Olive EVOO act as a canvas. The Double Barrel Aged Balsamic provides the "acidic lift," cutting through the richness of the oil to wake up your taste buds. When you whisk them together, they emulsify into a thick, luxurious vinaigrette that clings to leafy greens rather than sliding off.

Sustainable, Traditional, and Traceable

When you purchase the "Made for Each Other" Duo, you are supporting a legacy of craftsmanship. Full Olive partners exclusively with small, family-run estates in Argentina that have been perfecting their craft for over 80 years.

• Minimal Intervention: Our producers use natural irrigation from Andean snowmelt and organic cultivation methods.

• No Chemical Refining: We believe in the purity of the fruit. No chemicals, no fillers, just pure, traceable flavor from the grove to your table.

A Note from Adam, Founder of Full Olive

“This duo represents the heart of what Full Olive stands for: heritage, integrity, and connection. I’ve known these producers for years and have seen their commitment to their craft firsthand. I chose this specific olive oil because of its smoothness and flavor, but it wasn't a 'Full Olive' product until I tasted it with our balsamic. They truly are made for each other. Bringing this pairing to you is the purest expression of the friendships and landscapes that inspire everything we do.”
