Rumi olive trees are the indigenous surri olive trees of Palestine. The name Rumi refers to the tree’s ancient heritage dating back to Roman times. Most Rumi olive trees are 1,000 to 2,000 years old, a testimony to the resilience of the trees and the sustainable agricultural traditions that ensure nutrient-dense olive oil for optimal health. Rumi olive oil offers the most complex flavor in Canaan's lineup that is sure to excite the palate. A fresh fruity start transcends to tangy, then hints of bitter, and a lingering spicy, peppery finish. This robust olive oil is perfect for dipping fresh bread or enhancing flavor when cooking your favorite dish.
