A very special letter...

This year, we decided to include a letter in the Gift Box that captures what we believe it truly represents.

If you've already tried one of our EVOOs, you know the story behind each of these bottles. We also know how much you love giving our Olive Oil as a gift — because you want the people you care about to enjoy the same nuances, flavours, aromas and extraordinary sensations that you and yours experience with every one of these exceptional oils.

We hope this letter, tucked inside every gift box, captures the spirit and intention you want to share when you give this gift to someone who matters to you.

I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments!

Hello!

Inside this box you'll find four extraordinary Extra Virgin Olive Oils.

They come from an olive grove in Puente Genil, a small town in Córdoba.

But these aren't just 4 bottles of EVOO.

This gift was chosen for you by someone who, one day, read a letter.

And that letter reminded them of you…

It reminded them of the love they feel for you…

This is the same letter they read:

"Dear Three Wise Men,

This Christmas, I'm not going to ask for anything for myself.

This year, I've realised something.

I have a family that loves me, a family I love with all my heart, and with whom I've shared unforgettable moments — moments we rarely used to have. I remember waking up every morning to those delicious slices of toast drizzled in olive oil, the way our grandmother taught us years ago… Laughing together, teasing each other, listening to the news and grumbling about it, humming that song we all love, surrounded by the scent of earth and tomato.

I have friends who, even though I see them less than ever, even though I miss those mornings when we'd meet for breakfast — thick village bread, that bright green and peppery olive oil, a good cup of coffee — we feel closer than we ever have.

But above all, I've realised that having all of this is no accident.

Having all that love around me is an inheritance.

A gift passed down from generation to generation.

A gift that travelled from my great-great-grandparents to my grandparents, from them to my parents, and today it has come to me.

The gift of knowing how to love. Of knowing how to cherish those small moments that each day offers us. Of taking those minutes to share what makes us laugh, what worries us, or simply the first silly thought that comes to mind.

The people who love us, and whom we love, are what matter most. And spending time with them is what we truly need. Even over a simple breakfast. Everything else is extra.

Thank you, Three Wise Men, for helping me see this inheritance — the most precious of all — which this year has been given to me in such a special way.

Hugs and kisses,"

…

This Extra Virgin Olive Oil you've been given is a symbol.

It's an EVOO made directly by a grower, Migue, just as his father made it before him, just as his grandfather showed him between one harvest load and the next, and just as he in turn learned from his great-grandfather.

It's a symbol of something unique — inherited, impossible to teach in any classroom. A deep and rooted love, intangible yet real.

The aromas and nuances of each of these EVOOs will take you somewhere you may not quite remember — somewhere you might think you've never been. Yet it's a place seared into your memory like the heat of a wood-fired oven.

You'll catch the scent of the countryside and tomato, of olive leaves and sun-ripened fruit, and you'll feel that gentle, peppery warmth of the purest olive juice.

You'll discover new sensations that, at their core, are memories.

You'll savour an inheritance from generations who loved their families, their friends, and the land that raised them — tending it day after day, until the sun went down.

This is what these four bottles of Extra Virgin Olive Oil represent.

And this is the symbol someone has given you — so that you can enjoy it in those small, precious moments with the people you love, every single day.

With all our love for the land and for everything authentic, the whole team at Mi Oliva Gourmet wishes you a very Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with unforgettable moments.

Warmly.
