Mediterranean Context
Mediterranean tables are rarely uniform.
Different olives, textures, and flavors are often served together, allowing contrast and variety within a single bowl. Mixed olives reflect this habit. They encourage sharing, conversation, and slow eating.
The addition of mild spices follows the same philosophy. Not to overpower, but to add warmth and depth that unfolds gradually.
The Character of Spicy Mixed Olives
Multiple Varieties, One Harmony
Each olive contributes its own texture and flavor, creating a dynamic but balanced combination.
Warm, Not Aggressive Heat
Spices are used with restraint, adding aroma and gentle warmth without masking the natural character of the olives.
Traditional Preparation Approach
Natural Fermentation
