About Taybeh Olive Oil
@

The Taybeh Brewing Company (TBC) ventured into exporting Taybeh Extra Virgin Olive Oil in Spring 2003 during the harsh closure and siege on the Palestinian Territories in order to help the local farmers with their harvest.

Following two successful shipments to France , TBC diversified from producing the one and only Palestinian national beer, Taybeh Beer, to bottling Taybeh Extra Virgin Olive Oil to assist the local community with their distribution need.

Taybeh Extra Virgin Olive Oil was purchased from the local farmers without bargaining and at fair trade. The greatest beneficiaries of the TBC's diversification are the local people that need to sell their olive oil for profit.

"Extra Virgin Olive Oil" is the highest quality classification in the production of olive oil and the village of Taybeh is proud to have olives comparable to the Tuscany region in Italy well known for their high quality olive oil. The Taybeh Extra Virgin Olive Oil is smooth, elegant oil with a rich aroma that yields an incomparable grassy-fruity bouquet with excellent taste.

The local farmers participated in educational sessions from Italian olive oil experts that visited Taybeh in order to teach how to obtain the highest levels of quality especially in "Cold Press" extraction technologies. The farmers were taught to quickly transport their olives to the new local olive presser in Taybeh in order to reduce the amount of time between picking and extraction. Taybeh is proud to produce the premium grade of olive oil that comes from the very finest olives. Needing no purification, Taybeh Extra Virgin Olive Oil has perfect flavor, aroma and color and a maximum acid context of 1%.
