Basil Olive Oil
Product description
African Oils’ Extra Virgin Basil Olive Oil is made, using the traditional Italian “Agrumato” method whereby whole olives are crushed along with the freshest basil leaves. This method produces a rare, unique basil Olive oil which captures the full flavours of the olives and leaves in perfect balance. This formula was developed through craftsmanship and dedication, enabling us to produce the hearty natural goodness we are known for.
