The Sunfood Difference These delectable pitted Peruvian Black Botija olives are packed with nutrition and beautifying oleic acid, a heart-healthy monounsaturated fat. Our certified organic, fully raw, and naturally ripe Botija olives are hand-selected, sea-salt cured, and low-temperature dried for an extraordinary olive experience. Many black olives are picked long before they are ripe, then artificially softened and darkened with a chemical treatment. We prefer pure olive flavor; no chemicals, and no preservatives.
