Our Story
On a mountain ridge overlooking Northern California's Carmel Valley, High Top Ranch produces exquisite artisanal olive oil of the choicest order. Our 300 organically grown trees are mostly the coveted Spanish Arbequina, while varying seasonal yields of French (Tanche, Canyon, Saloneque, Aglandau, Grossane) and Italian (Leccino, Frantoio, Moraiolo, Pendolino, Maurino) varietals lend nuance to a unique annual blend that is ultimately determined by nature itself. The beautiful southwest-facing orchard basks in occasional fog-shrouded nights to bear premium fruit that is hand-harvested at the peak of ripeness in the fall by our loving family and friends. The olives are then immediately cold-pressed, resulting in an oil of unparalleled flavor.
Whether straight from the bottle or as an ingredient in your favorite recipe, High Top Ranch 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil is sure to lend its distinctive pedigree to your equally unique dishes.
