NYIOOC 2026 – Kristofola Olive Oil Returns to the World Stage with Its 8th Consecutive Medal

The world’s most prestigious olive oil quality competition, the NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition, once again brought together the finest producers from across the globe. Among thousands of samples evaluated by an international panel of experts, only those that consistently demonstrate exceptional quality, authenticity, and dedication to every detail of production stand out.

We are proud to announce that our extra virgin olive oil, Kristofola – Buža, has been awarded once again this year, achieving an extraordinary milestone – its eighth consecutive medal at this renowned competition.

This continuity of recognition places us among a small group of producers who succeed in maintaining the highest level of quality year after year. For us, each medal represents far more than an award; it is a confirmation of dedicated work in the olive grove, carefully managed processing, and a constant pursuit of excellence.

The eighth consecutive medal further reinforces our philosophy – respect for nature, timely harvesting, rapid processing, and uncompromising quality control at every stage of production. It is precisely this consistency that allows the Buža variety in our oil to express its full character – freshness, elegance, and distinctive aromatic profile.

This achievement is not ours alone; it is also a recognition of tradition, terroir, and everyone involved in creating Kristofola olive oil. At the same time, it serves as a strong motivation to continue forward with even greater knowledge, passion, and responsibility toward every new harvest.

Thank you to everyone who recognizes and supports our work.
