JOËLLE WINS AWARDS

Beginning in 2006 Joëlle Olive Oils have been entered in olive oil tasting competitions at California county fairs. The Los Angeles County Competition includes hundreds of oils from around the world. The Yolo County Competition is more local, featuring northern California brands. New to this group of competitions is the California Olive Oil Council (COOC) which held its first competition in February this year.
     Every year each of the types of Joëlle Olive Oil have been recognized and received awards. 2009 is another banner year for Joëlle Oils, with each of its five types winning one or two awards. While Joёlle Olive Oil did not enter the LA County Fair competition, we joined COOC this year and entered three oils in its inaugural competition. The Mission and Manzanillo Blend as well as the Barouni each won gold medals. At the Yolo County Fair event, our Mission, Barouni, and Early Harvest Manzanillo each won gold medals with our Blend and Late Harvest Manzanillo winning silvers. We were pleased that we have again shown what a wonderful product we offer our customers.  (While a huge customer favorite, the Mission Garlic has not been entered in these competitions.)
