Tampa-Based 15 Olives Launches Award-Winning 2025 U.S.-Made Olive Oils

The Entire 2025 Collection Takes Home Silver and Gold at the World’s Leading Olive Oil Competition

15 Olives, a U.S.-made olive oil brand grounded in craftsmanship, transparency, and everyday enjoyment, has officially launched its 2025 harvest of extra virgin olive oils, and all three varieties are already award winners.

Freshly bottled and already turning heads, the 2025 collection has earned top honors at one of the world’s most respected olive oil competitions. The Mild Extra Virgin Olive Oil took home Silver at the NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition, joined by a Silver win for the Bold Tuscan, and a Gold Award for the Robust, making every oil in the 2025 lineup an award winner.

Based in Tampa, Florida, 15 Olives produces its oils in the United States using olives grown on its farms in Florida and California. The brand was founded with the belief that exceptional olive oil should be honest, accessible, and deeply connected to where and how it is made.

“We’re incredibly proud of this year’s harvest and what it represents,” said Stuart Alfonso, founder of 15 Olives. “From our farms in Florida and California to bottling here in the U.S., every step is intentional. These awards are a meaningful validation of the care we put into producing oils people can trust and enjoy every day.”

Each oil in the 2025 collection offers a distinct flavor profile. The Mild delivers a smooth, delicate finish ideal for lighter dishes and baking. The Bold Tuscan brings a balanced, herbaceous character well suited for pastas and roasted vegetables. The Robust offers a more intense, peppery finish that pairs beautifully with grilling and heartier meals.

As consumer demand continues to rise for American-made products and transparent sourcing, 15 Olives stands out for its hands-on approach to farming, production, and quality control. From grove to bottle, the brand remains closely involved in every step of the process.

In addition to its award-winning olive oils, 15 Olives also offers a curated selection of flavored balsamic vinegars crafted to complement its oils and elevate everyday cooking.

The 2025 olive oil collection and balsamics are available at specialty retailers and online at the 15 Olives website.
