Antino Wins Gold Again at World Competition

Antino from Croatia has been awarded in New York at the world's largest olive oil quality contest.

I feel very satisfied and grateful for the opportunity. For us, this means the most. Proof of continuity of quality.

Ante Vulin said, owner

The Dalmatian producer earned a second-consecutive Gold Award for its medium Oblica at the 2023 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition.

"I feel very satisfied and grateful for the opportunity," owner Ante Vulin said. "For us, this means the most. Proof of continuity of quality."

In the 2022/23 crop year, Vulin produced 3,000 liters of extra virgin olive oil using traditional methods.

"The biggest challenges were to overcome the drought in an optimal way, to wait for the ripening of the fruit at the optimal time," he said. "We did it."

The NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition is the world's most prestigious olive oil contest. Its annual listing of award winners is considered the authoritative guide to the year’s best extra virgin olive oils.
