FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


They look different, so what is the difference between a black and a green olive?

All olives start off green when they are forming on the tree, then as they mature they change color over the weeks from a soft pink to purple to black.
If you want green olives, they are picked green, and if you want black olives they are left on the tree to go black.


Do IOGT olives need refrigerating?

Yes, because they are marinated in brine - once opened they need refrigeration.


Is a Kalamata Olive the same as a black olive?

No, Kalamata olives are a superb “variety” of olives – they have a different flavour, texture and coloring.
