Andrew Benin lived for two years in Spain and fell in love with the culture. But rather than changing his first name to Andrés and adopting a fake Spanish accent, he decided to bring to the US high-quality and affordable olive oil that intended to be used generously at every meal, just as he experienced in Spain.
Now in the states, Benin teamed with co-founder Allen Dushi to start Graza. Grazaâs oils are unblended and made from 100% Picual olives grown in Jaen, Spain, where the pressing and bottling also happen. The brand launched with two types of olive oil; âSizzle,â made for cooking, and âDrizzle,â ideal for topping food, even ice cream.
