Bariani Olive Oil

Fantastic customer service! The gentlemen who assisted us were friendly and informative! Their olive oil is creamy and not bitter. The balsamic is 6 years old and has a fantastic bold but sweet tang. I was delighted to find the local honey to be only $ 8 a jar!!! What a deal! So glad I stop by!

Absolutely the best!!! I am on the east coast and have been ordering from Bariani for several years. Their products and customer service are well worth the shipping cost and wait. Bariani Olive Oil is exquisite and their Skin and Body lotion is a must in my house. I’ve tried nearly every high priced skin lotion on the market and none compare.
Nourishing and healing for sensitive or dry skin!

So these guys are at the Ferry Building? I got it at Raleys. And it’s awesome. It’s a bit cloudy, but I like EVOO as a cracker topping and on top of things like cheese toast. Heavy savory things. Great bite, to let you know it’s there providing flavor along with whatever you pour it on.
I probably wouldn’t cook with it. I have, and it smells awesome, but I think I’m probably destroying it with heat.
This is a good oil when you want a powerful oil to stand up with the flavors it is poured on. Roasted vegetables, toasted bread, homemade croutons (baked, not sauteed), etc…
It’s unfiltered, so the cloudy stuff at the bottom is like gold. Not the flavor of hot sauce, but the same idea. It just makes things better.

Its hard to find better olive oil than Bariani’s. Its pricey but worth every penny. Just please dont even think of cooking with this stuff. Its as raw and unprocessed as its gets and its meant to stay that way. And if you choose to dip your bread in it, be very careful — it tastes so good that you’ll probly eat your way into a carb-​induced coma.

Holy smokes. Best. Olive oil. Ever. !!! I have been using Bariani olive oil almost exclusively for about 10 years, and I still love it. I brought a couple of bottles to my friend back east, and now he is hooked, too, and I have to bring some whenever I visit! (He said it’s more precious than fancy wine!) I love that I can also pick it up at the Civic Center farmers market on Wednesdays so I don’t have to go out of my way.

I worked in the FiDi since I was a teen and have frequented the ferry building farmer’s market religiously. A few years ago, I purchased a bottle of Bariani olive oil and wasnt too impressed (mostly, I knew very little about fine olive oil). Just today I purchased a 2 oz bottle of their face and body cream from the Alemany Farmer’s market. Wow, I’m truly impressed. There are only 3 items listed in the ingredients list: olive oil, beeswax and water. When I sampled it on my terribly dry face it absorbed very well. I’ll be purchasing many more items from Bariani soon.

Amazing cold press «pre-​virgin» or virgin virgin olive oil. People used to fake crap will probably note a bite in the flavor. This is what real oil tastes like. The only time I’ve had oil better than this is my pop brought back a 5 gallon bucket of olive oil from Italy. The main reason is that if you get 5 gallons at a time it AGES well. The same for Bariani. If you perceive a «bite» it will age out. I sop up loads of this stuff in local fresh baked bread and I find myself preferring this to butter (natural yummy tasty salted butter).
Bariani’s lead-​free balsamic vinegar is superior as well. You can tell by making simple dishes involving Bariani Olive Oil and Bariani Vinegar with some fresh organic local red peppers and tomatoes and you have a taste explosion with 4 ingredients and a dash of salt. The quality should be readily apparent.

I have learned how olive oil make such a big difference in cooking. Their green olive oil has stronger fravor than the normal one, go with many vegies and pain de campagne.
When I stopped by here I saw Japanee Magazine in the shop and was surprised that it has been sold in Japan for 10,000 YEN (equal to $ 90) for a bottle. Well, I will add this to my sourvenir list to my family and friends back in Japan.

Bariani has a small stall set up in front of the Ferry building on Saturday mornings. I know there are many specialty olive oils available, but I’m a fan of Bariani, mainly because they turned me on the green olive oil.
The friendly chap saw me carrying my three bunches of asparagus, and said I MUST have the green olive oil as accompaniment. This oil is made from younger olives, and the yield is lower, so it is priced a bit higher. I reluctantly dug into the pockets for the extra, and I was pleasantly surprised. This oil is so grassy and fresh tasting, I regularly look forward to enjoying it with a nice crusty, chewy, baguette.
There are many other delicious olive oils out there, but I’m really happy Bariani turned me on to this.
