Olive de Nîmes

Olive de Nîmes are whole green olives of the Picholine variety, with a characteristically crunchy and juicy texture. They are produced in the Gard and Hérault regions in France, where the olive trees have been present since ancient times.

Only the olives from the finest, firmest olive trees are suitable for this production process. The olives are hand harvested in early fall and processed in brine to lose their bitterness. They have an intense green color, are firm to the touch and their flavors are salty, sweet, buttery, slightly bitter and acidic with hints of hazelnut.
