We take the same care packing your extra virgin olive oil order as we do growing and harvesting it. Every tin that leaves our hands is triple-protected — because the journey from our groves to your kitchen matters as much as what goes into the bottle

Three Layers of Protection

Our packing process has been designed to protect your EVOO on the road from our grove to your door.

How we Pack Your Order

01 Food-Grade Metal Tins

Your extra virgin olive oil is stored in robust 5-litre food-grade metal tins, sealed with a secure screw cap and a tamper-evident lock clip. Metal is impermeable to light — one of extra virgin olive oil's greatest enemies — and is fully certified for direct food contact. The seal is checked before every order leaves us.

02 Solid Wooden Inner Box

The tins sit inside a solid wooden inner box, custom-fitted so they cannot shift, knock together or tip during transit.
The rigid wooden walls absorb any shocks or drops that inevitably occur during courier handling.

03 Double-Taped Cardboard Outer Box

The wooden box is placed inside a heavy-duty cardboard shipping carton. Each seam and edge is sealed with double-layered packing tape. A prominent Fragile — This Way Up label is applied to the outside, ensuring handlers know to keep your parcel upright throughout its journey.

Our Promise

Packing is the last act of care we can give before your order sets off.

  • Tins are checked for a proper seal and secure cap before packing

  • The wooden box is fitted snugly — no movement is possible inside

  • All edges and seams of the outer carton are taped twice over

  • Fragile and orientation labels are applied to all visible faces

  • Every parcel is photographed before courier handover

Getting It to You

Once sealed and labelled, your parcel is collected by an established international courier service with extensive experience in handling food and liquid shipments. They offer door-to-door delivery with real-time tracking so you can follow your order every step of the way.

A tracking number is sent to you as soon as your parcel is sent. You will have the option to rearrange the delivery date for a time that suits you.
