"May Contain" statement NEW FOR 2025 (Progressive rollout):

  • In 2025 we will be progressively updating our labels and product pictures with our new label that now include a "May Contain" statement.
  • The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) dictates that "Cross-contamination statements may be declared by food manufacturers and importers".
  • That said, we hold ourselves to much higher standards than the CFIA and Health Canada rules oblige. Most companies do not and you will only rarely see "May Contain" statements.
  • If there is a remote chance that there might be cross-contamination of a priority allergen, we will declare it on the product label in the form of a "May Contain" statement.
  • A "May Contain" statement does not mean that the allergen is present in the product, it is simple a precautionary measure we take to stay the most transparent possible.
  • If an allergen is present in the product, it will be clearly declared in the ingredients.
  • For example our Quebec made flours come from a mill that makes both oat and wheat flours. Since both allergens are present in the mill we automatically declare the possibility of cross-contamination even if all precautionary measures are taken.
  • Only priority allergens are declared in the "May Contain" statement, which are:
    • Cereals & Grains: Triticale, Barley, Oats, Rye, Wheat.
    • Tree Nuts: Almonds, Brazil Nuts, Cashews, Hazelnuts, Macadamia Nuts, Pecans, Pine Nuts, Pistachios, Walnuts.
    • Peanuts
    • Sesame
    • Eggs
    • Milk
    • Soy
    • Mustard
    • Fish
    • Seafood: Crustaceans, Molluscs.
    • Sulphites
  • Priority allergens are decided by government agencies and health boards. To read more on the subject see "Common food allergens - Priority allergens" published by the CFIA.
  • Full CFIA cross-contamination statement explanation "Food allergen cross-contamination (or precautionary) statements".

Our organic extra virgin olive oil (Kalamata Gold) is a general-purpose delicious olive oil derived from ripe olives, of mild intensity, extracted at 25-27 °C (cold extracted olive oil) with low acidity usually not more than 0.3. An elite category of olive oil obtained from handpicked organically grown olives from the olive groves of Mani, located in the southern Peloponnese of Greece. This product offers a genuine, one of a kind taste and is ranked among the worlds finest olive oils.

The harvesting begins in the last weeks of October, by hand using vibrating rakes that gently shake the fruit onto nets slightly raised above the ground, so that when they fall they are not bruised. This method makes sense for a lot of the surrounding farmers that utilise their mill too. Each batch will be transported to their mill and be pressed within 24 hours.

They are the proud owners of 2000 olive trees thriving in numerous olive groves, a large proportion being from the Ancient Greece of which are up to 700 years old! The trees belong to a variety native to Messinia and the Ionian sea region. Under the right conditions and care, they produce an exceptional quality extra virgin olive oil, usually high in beneficial polyphenols.

Extra virgin olive oil, is the highest quality of olive oil. Part of the Mediterranean diet, this traditional oil has been a dietary staple for some of the world's healthiest populations.
