Delicious vinaigrette

So good and a time saver when I’m too rushed to make my own. I made the mistake of refrigerating it, but this isn’t a grocery store salad dressing full of soybean oil and high fructose corn syrup. Just a handful of pure ingredients perfectly blended and balanced. I also use their olive oil and trust that it is not rancid - like so many others on the market.

Best olive oil ever

I've been using this olive oil for a couple of year now and really like the fresh tangy olive oil flavor. It is the only brand I use now and hopefully forever. Thanks Vatina and PaPa Vince family for providing such a great product!

Peppery Deliciousness!

The Papa Vince olive oil itself is good enough to eat with a spoon! The Chili oil is just as good, plus has a just a little bite of chili peppers. I’ve used a little dash in scrambled eggs, and a tablespoon or so with a fish filet. The oil adds a little spiciness and heat without overpowering the flavor. I think it’s great 😊

Healthy Addiction

My husband and I are enjoying our Papa Vince’s extra virgin olive oil so much. We use it most every day in some way, from on our salads to over pasta dishes, or roasted veggies. So healthy tasting and so tasty compared to other olive oils.
Thank you Papa Vince for being there when we need that extra pour.
