Branche Olive Oil's Pristine Attention To Detail Is Clear

by Chloe Gordon on 07/21/2022 | 3 Minute Read

Olive Oil is one of the most underrated cooking accouterments. The flavor-enhancing ingredients can make or break your dish or dessert, so it's significant to source high-quality brands, even if you're cooking for yourself. Branche is one of these brands that prides itself on batch-tested bottles, and the stunning minimalistic bottle design is just a chef's cherry on top.

The natural bottle hues paired with a textured paper label with minimal typography create a fresh aesthetic that allows the olive oil to shine genuinely. Plus, the wooden bottle stopper is yet another detail that highlights the brand's willingness to set a new standard for aesthetics and every element involved.

About Branche 

Branche is the first direct-to-consumer olive oil company setting a new standard for sourcing, transparency and flavor. Unlike most olive oils on the market, every bottle is sourced from a single farm in Spain – so you know exactly where your olive oil comes from. Branche runs every batch by its team of sensory experts to ensure accurate descriptions; if an olive oil is described as buttery, garlicky, or herbaceous, that’s exactly how it will taste. Created by an olive oil expert whose family has worked in Spain’s olive oil industry for generations, Branche is on a mission to change the way you think about olive oil and what it can do for your food and body, setting a new standard for sourcing, transparency and flavor.

Branche No. 1 

The one you sponge up with your favorite bakery’s sourdough loaf. A medium olive oil profile with earthier and greener notes. No. 1 provides a more traditional approach in olive oil taste while keeping a range of aromatic, soft tones – think tomato, artichoke, and a more lingering floral bouquet.

Branche No. 2

Your reliable companion in the kitchen - great at dinner parties, brunches, or even to elevate a late night ice cream craving. A softer olive oil with sweet aromas. No. 2 brings a gentle approach to your dishes, providing them with ripe stone fruit at the base, as well as nutty and buttery notes. 

Cofounder and CEO Carlos Agudo, whose family has worked in Spain’s olive oil industry for generations, tasted 100+ olive oils from dozens of olive varietals from Italy, Greece, Spain, California, Turkey, and Chile seeking exceptional oils while developing Branche.
