Meti d'Oli

Méti d'Oli, which means "put oil on it" in Provençal, is an olive farm located in La Ciotat, a 100% olive oil producer.

In 2013, Alyn and Eris Hassler acquired this land with about 30 olive trees several hundred years old, where the farm buildings will be built in 2017.

In 2017, they completed part of the work on the farm buildings and opened a small shop to sell the oil on the farm and above all set up their new private mill to extract the oil on the spot and finally succeed in being 100% producers, from the work on the soil of the olive groves to the pruning and treatment of the olive trees to the extraction at the mill and the sale of their oils.

In 2020, the conversion of the entire farm to organic farming will begin.

In 2022, number 7 was awarded the Gold Medal by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food at the Concours Général Agricole in Paris.
It is a blend of lightly matured salonenque, grossanne, cayon and calletier, cold extracted in a stainless steel mill.

Made entirely of stainless steel and of Italian manufacture, the mill has the capacity to crush 150 kg of olives per hour. It is composed of a stripper-washer, a hammer mill, 2 mixers of 150 kg capacity each, a 2 phase decanter separator which is a centrifuge in which the clarified and separated oil phase is evacuated by gravity on the liquid side of the decanter.
The autonomy provided by a private autonomous mill allows us to crush, while searching for flavours and aromas, to produce matured olive oils (Métis d'Oli n°7) and single variety oils as well as more personal blends.

The small direct sales shop is located near the latest plot of land acquired by the couple, bringing the total to 2000 trees.
