#5: I'm leaving America.

This is the first time I'm leaving the country since a 2 month solo trip in Europe in 2022 designed so that by the time I came home, I had the proper olive oil for my brand. My goals are different this time around and want to bring you along the journey of finding the best foods in the world. If you have any Japan recommendations hit me up! And the cover picture for this episode was taken in Cartoceto in the cafe with the Italians that helped me find residence for the night. Took an hour for them to figure out what I needed but it was great! If you like this episode, please follow the podcast and leave a review.

#4: This Interview is Pure - with Diamantis of Laconiko Olive Oil

The most touching element of my time with Diamantis was learning about how he has to be separated from his family in America for months out of the year. Laconiko is an up and coming Olive Oil brand that has already been supplying for top US brands for years.

#2: Frantoi Cutrera Interview (November 2022)

Salvatore Cutrera runs the show, but his son Giovanni, who grew up working the mill and the farm, was the right person to interview. Great English, great personality. Last year I started an Olive Oil Brand and after visiting 40 different olive oil mills throughout California, Spain, Italy, Israel, and Greece, I decided to use Frantoi Cutrera's Olive Oil. While I visited their facility in Southern Sicily, I was fortunate enough to get to sit down with Giovanni Cutrera for a 15 minute interview. Hope you enjoy!
