Frequently Asked Questions Who makes the oil and vinegar? The Organic EVOO is cold-pressed by Sparta Gourmet in Laconia, Greece. The white balsamic is made by Domaine Costa Lazaridi in Drama, northern Greece, from Sémillon grapes grown on the estate. What's in the Eliovi herb blend? Five ingredients: sea salt, garlic, oregano, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Nothing else. Why white balsamic instead of dark? Botanico White is unaged by design, so it stays blond — it brightens the dip and doesn't muddy the oil's color or flavor the way a heavy dark balsamic can. How long will the set last? The 250ml oil is sized for a few weeks of regular dipping; the vinegar and herb blend last months. Store the oil sealed, cool, and dark.
