Nicea Olive Oil is cold pressed with olives sourced from olive collectives around Lake Iznik in the Bursa region of Turkiye.

Gemlik olives are renowned for their exceptional quality and rich flavor, grown in the coastal region of Turkey where the Mediterranean climate nurtures them to perfection. These olives are prized for their tender, juicy texture and deep, robust taste, with a unique balance of natural saltiness and slight sweetness. Gemlik olives PDO are packed with heart-healthy oils and antioxidants, making them a delicious and nutritious choice. Whether enjoyed on their own, added to salads, or pressed into premium olive oil, Gemlik olives bring a touch of excellence to any dish.

Iznik, historically known as Nicea, is a city rich in cultural heritage. It was the site of the First Ecumenical Council and is renowned for its stunning Ottoman-era tile craftsmanship, blending history, art, and tradition into a timeless legacy. Iznik tiles are the inspiration for our branding.
Where is Nicea?
We made Nicea after sharing our family olive oil with several managers at NASA JPL who were patient during all my trips to see my wife and her family in Turkiye. After all the glowing compliments we decided to share it with the world.
