Dolija

Dolija olive orchards can be found on the land of their ancestors in Veliki Vareški, situated on the picturesque south-eastern coast of the Istrian peninsula. In the late 1800s, they expanded their property and have bestowed upon them the heritage of not only the land that feeds us, but also a moral obligation to the land and a feeling of being rooted. Thanks to the efforts of the whole family, today sees young olive trees growing alongside those of a hundred years old and more. 

Although mostly made up of a karst landscape which requires much and doesn't give a lot back, it is still the land that provides a magical symbiosis of sun, wind and sky. Tireless hands transform the picked fruit, combining traditional and modern methods, into golden green drops. 

Family tradition, a respect for the land plus a knowledge and love of olives results in the numerous award winning products of a recognisable Dolija brand.
