Mantova Whole Castelvetrano Olives in a Mild Brine, 52.91 oz. (3.3 lb.) (Pack of 1), Product of Sicily, Italy, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Cholesterol-Free, Vegan-Friendly, Paleo-Friendly

Absolutely delicious! I purchased the 52oz bag. While there is initial saltiness, once you rinse and drain the olives, they’re just as delicious as they are fresh in Italy. They’re firm, buttery, with a slight sodium undertone. I split them between 4 old olive jars. I left them 3/4 in brine and diluted the remainder with filtered water to thin out the sodium used for transport + preservation.

These olives are so good. Love them! Will be buying more.

I received a spoiled batch like some of the others with a dark brine, nothing like the picture. The flavor was chemically and salty, and just tasted off. I’ve purchased the Roland & Partanna cans of whole olives in the past (many times) and went with these because they were cheaper. I won’t make that mistake again.

So good. Think they lasted a week. Kid LOVES em. He is an olive connoisseur. 8)

I’ve had bags that were what I was looking for, firm and not too salty with a buttery flavor. The next order they were too soft.

taste is good but i was hoping for a bigger olive as we’d had in Sicily/Puglia same variety but much larger. Still a pretty salty brine and i really want a nice big olive without the brining flavor wasgood but alarger olive would have been a better look for our charcuterie board

We ordered these olives in November 2024. They arrived as promised. Today is Feb 17, 2025 and the sealed bag has been in the refrigerator. I opened the bag and distributed the contents to a mason jar and previously used jars with caps. The taste; they are packed in brine, so you could expect them to be slightly salty, they are. Texture is firm YUM ! They are exactly what I hoped they would taste like. Yes, they have pit. I don't mind the pits. I'll buy these again, the price is a fair one.

I’m not a huge fan of whole olives. However for the price and the actual amount of olive it is so worth it. I will admit I have a small olive addiction to the point most jars just don’t last much more than 24 hours. Per volume theirs actually more olives than brine compared to the jars. The flavor is good too but I have yet to meet a natural olive I don’t like. The only way to ruin an olive is to stuff it with the wrong thing. I compare whole olives to seeded watermelon though I prefer both to be seedless they are still just as delicious you just have to adjust how you eat them. That being said adjust your eating technique and enjoy some great olives for an awesome price. Also they bubble wrap and use packing tape to protect the bag so enjoy the fun of finding out how to get the package out without puncturing it. Worth the laughter of trying to get it out then the struggle of finding a container to fit it. Was forced to eat a large snack bowl full cause they would not fit. It was such a tragedy that I will probably be doing it again in a week or less.
