Byrsa Golden Extra virgin olive oil is our pride. Our company sells two olive oil varieties. Both varieties come from the authentic Tunisian olive varieties: Chetwi and Chemlali.

Byrsa Golden  Chetwi has a strong olive oil taste which is ideal for dipping, dressing salads, and giving a final chef-like touch to your dishes.

Byrsa Golden Chemlali has a sweet and tender fruity oil that is less intense and thus ideal for seasoning pasta, sauces, and flavouring both sweet and savoury recipes.

Hajri Mediterranean Flavors Export manages the entire olive oil production cycle: From growing trees in organic areas to pressing and bottling olive oil.

The main process of producing extra virgin oil is based on the Hajri family’s expertise that has been carefully passed down from generation-to-generation. Around 20% of the company’s olive oil is sourced from the owner’s olive orchards, which are located in a well-known Amazigh (Berber) village formerly known as Aradin, and today called Sidi Jdidi. . The remaining percentage is collected from small local farmers making up nearly 1 million olive trees.

All our ripe olives are picked by hand. The harvest starts in October and continues on to mid-February, depending on how ripe the olives are. All the harvested olives are carefully sorted, washed with water, and pressed on the same day of collection.

Oil extraction is always done by exclusively cold mechanical action with a strong consideration to the temperature control guidelines to obtain the cold pressed extra virgin olive oil with its authentic taste...
