Olive picking in Dalmatia! Croatia has the BEST olive oil in the WORLD!

This was a quick trip down to the Zadar region to meet up with Valentin and his family who produce our favorite olive oil on the planet! (Dolina Maslina) We had such a fun time going through the whole experience of picking the olives, watching each step as they eventually turn into oil!
Want to get some of this great oil for yourself? Here's their website and contact:

    Bravo! Bog je ovu zemlju obdario najboljim maslinama, tartufama, vinima, sušenim i svježim mesom. Bolji smo od Italije i Francuske, ali oni imaju bolju priču i više ih je. Zato hvala Vam Sarah što prezentirate našu domovinu ovako dobro! Svaka Vam čast! Pozdrav svima u Vašoj veseloj i inspirativnoj obitelji.

    Svake godine uzmem sebi maslinovo ulje i ponesem ga u svicarsku. ovdje mi gosti uvijek kazu, gdje sam kupijo, da li je spanjolski ili grcki i kad kazem da je hrvatski, onda svi kazu pa kako tako da je dobar a nema ga po svijetu. Sretan sam sto ga nema, jer me strah, da bi kvaliteta propala. Hvala ti za ovaj odlican video👍🏻🙏

    That was a first for me. How many kilos needed to make 1 litre of Olive oil? Is there any heat invloved? What happens with all the slurry when the oil is extracted? Oh yeah,how long does the oil keep?

    Wow that's amazing! Needed this video today! It's raining olives! :) What a fun for the kids to pick em and to use that weird tool to remove the olives from the branches! And I remember when I was a kid, it was such fun to drive the tractor, or here for the kids to steer the steering wheel! I think Mate was impressed to sit in the tank, I can feel that! Unfortunately it's a sad remnent of the "Domovinski Rat" but it is what it is. Hopefully we don't need to fight again in a war! And the interesting is: Thank God I've got olives here!!!!!!! 🍽 🫒Btw. Didas bowl with olive oil and garlic was the best! I'm always keen on his plate and what he's eating! 😎

    it is called "komina", a plain biological waste, pretty dry because vegetable oil and vegetable water are separated into olive oil. In most cases it is wasted. Smarter approach is to add mineral fertilizer into komina... in such case one has a perfect fertilizer for next olive season...

    It's pure Croatian. Other than so called Italian or Greek olive oil, which is basically 80% Spanish or North African olive oil. It doesn't necessarily make the olive oils worse from somewhere else, but it is a mix. The same applies for good wines...they are also not mixed, but from one hill.

    Dalmatians like their olive oil when it goes off a bit, its not particularly appealing to my taste but they seem to like it. I am not denying that Croatian olive oil is top of the line but its just over priced compared to olive oils from different parts of Europe. Its just another item in Croatia that is ridiculously expensive and over rated. Croatia's agricultural potential is actively suppressed by EU and Croatian government policy which is deliberately keeping farmers pinned down with red tape, agricultural surpluses dumped on the Croatian market from Western EU states and other indiscriminate legal measures taken to prevent their prosperity. The Croatian government is actively involved in stifling Croatian farmers because they are also working towards property confiscations by illegally transferring rural properties tittles on to government agencies in order to later sell them to international investors or use them as collateral for perpetual IMF loans. Croatian farmers and land owners are in in a constant struggle with their own government to merely survive and retain ownership of their own property.
