Introducing Tabaki - Extra Virgin Olive Oil crafted with family history

Updated: Feb 23

We are excited to introduce Tabaki - our new, JJ own-brand, Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Produced using the finest olives, carefully selected from the South Aegean hills in Türkiye, this product is a craft of passion and family legacy that has been passed down through three generations.


Each bottle is comprised of single-origin, cold-pressed olives, to offer an authentic, quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil with a distinct, delicate and well-balanced flavour. Tabaki is perfect for dipping with bread, drizzling on cold salads, in pasta dishes and sauces.


The Tabaki story: three generations of passion

"My great-grandfather, Tabaki, had a long history of producing olive oil which was instilled in him by his family, who have lived on the Southern coast of Cyprus in the village of Alaminyo.


"The family is renowned for their love of the soil, olive trees and producing high-quality olive oil since 1891.


"To this day, the Tabaki name is remembered for the passion and core cultivating qualities which have proudly been passed on through three generations.


"The family continues to honour the legacy by proudly producing the Tabaki Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Türkiye, which you can enjoy today."


Mustafa Kiamil, Tabaki Founder and JJ Foodservice CEO.

Tabaki family origin: The village of Alaminyo, Cyprus
