This is a stunning success for our young company and a huge motivation for the current year. Today, we will open a bottle of champagne to toast every single Gold Award.
Rudolf Nemetschke, owner
It feels great winning for the first time Gold Awards for all the oils that we produce and also Gold for our Cuvee Istrian Blend for the first time, which won Silver in past years. Our 2022 success was widely noticed and helps us do our marketing.

We feel great and happy, as we see our focus on quality confirmed. These awards are not only important for the marketing, but also for all the people who work with us. They are motivation for all of us to do even better next year.
