After 3 very eventful months of retooling, the wait is over! Steve's Gourmet Olives is re-launching the product line using a new production process and new labels!  We have outgrown our production capabilities, and now The Sauceology Group in Clearwater, FL is producing our product line using Steve's recipes. We have revised the labels to reflect the gourmet ingredients inside and to help distinguish our products on the shelves. On July 17, Steve's Gourmet Olives will be pitching Winn-Dixie as part of their Winn-Local initiative to add local products to their shelves. Look for more news soon! 

We are re-launching with 4 of the original 6 flavors. This allows us to make room for new products that customers have been requesting over the past 3 years. Same great flavor, with each jar still individually hand packed and spiced with the best ingredients.Those 4 flavors are:

		Greek Mild - pitted Kalamata olives marinated in a bold red zinfandel wine from California and a savory blend of herbs, spices, garlic & mild peppers. Perfect addition to Greek salads, orzo pasta dishes and virtually all Mediterranean recipes.
		Greek Spicy - fiery habanero pepper added.
		Italian Pirate Mild - medley of Italian and other olives marinated in a bold red zinfandel wine from California and a savory blend of herbs, spices, garlic and mild peppers. Our secret Caribbean spices produce a unique and complex flavor profile. This is our signature recipe and is perfect for antipasto, party trays, or any red sauces. Pairs well with sharp cheeses, grilled steaks and full-bodied wines.
		Italian Pirate Spicy - fiery habanero pepper added.  Our signature recipe.  Spicy enough to walk the plank for more!
