In 1925, Nicola Sciabica purchased a grape vineyard in Modesto, California; 11 years later he began pressing olive oil on that property. Then in 2002, the Sciabica Family planted 7 specifically chosen varieties of olives on a sloped 5-acre hillside, quite literally in the shape of California! The hillside allows for precise water distribution and drainage. Each tree is drip irrigated from our estate well to ensure perfect water availability for the trees while maximizing conservation. The Estate Pressing of these olives is dubbed "Hillside 7".
Each bottle of our Hillside 7 is delicately filled by hand and adorned with the "Hillside Story" and production month. We guarantee this bottle will delight as a gift for any olive oil lover.
The seven varieties are a very unique combination of:
Itrana, Frantoio, Grappollo, Pendalino, Leccino, Kalamata, and San Felice
I have purchased most of your olive oils and have enjoyed experimenting all with different food items. I am a home baker and have now been using this Hillside 7 oil in my bread recipes. A hint of new flavor that works well, especially with whole wheat breads.
My son uses it every day.
We ordered three items for Sciabica and continue to be very impressed with the quality of any of their products that we have tried. Customer service is marvelous, and receiving the ordered items so quickly and so perfectly packaged doesn't disappoint. We occasionally purchase from the Sciatica showroom when we are in the area, but having the alternate rapid-delivery on-line option is great.
Thank you for everything you do. Sciatica is incomparable!
