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 well the story behind each one 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, flavors, aromas, and remarkable sensations you experience with every one of these extraordinary oils.

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

I'd love to read 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 very letter they read:

“Dear Three Kings,

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

This year, I've realized something.

I have a family that loves me, whom I love with all my heart, and with whom I've shared unforgettable moments — moments we rarely used to have before. I remember waking up every morning to those delicious slices of toast drizzled in olive oil, just as our grandmother taught us years ago… Laughing, teasing each other, listening to the news and grumbling about it, humming that song we love together, 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 — that wonderful village bread with that bright green, peppery oil and a good cup of coffee — feel closer to me than ever.

But above all, I've realized that having all of this is no coincidence.

Having all that love around me is an inheritance.

It is 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 that I, today, inherited from them.

The gift of knowing how to love, of knowing how to cherish those small moments offered to us each day — of using 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. Spending time with them is what we truly need. Even over a simple breakfast. Everything else is secondary.

Thank you, Three Kings, for helping me recognize this inheritance — the most precious of all — which was handed to me this year in such a special way.

With love and hugs,”

…

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

It is an EVOO made directly by a grower, Migue, just as his father made it, just as his grandfather explained it to him between one saddlebag and the next, and just as he, in turn, learned it from his great-grandfather.

It is a symbol of something unique that is inherited, something that cannot be taught in any school. A deep, rooted, intangible love.

The aromas and nuances of each of these EVOOs will carry you to a place you may not consciously remember — a place you might think you've never known. Yet it is, in truth, burned into your memory like the fierce heat of a wood-fired oven.

You'll catch the scent of open fields and tomato, of olive leaves and ripe fruit, and you'll feel that gentle, lingering pepperiness of the purest olive juice.

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

You'll savor an inheritance built by 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 Mi Oliva Gourmet team wishes you a very Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with unforgettable moments.

Warm regards.
