The pioneering Dalmatian producer earned the awards for its Sv. Ivan Oblica brand, an organic medium Oblica, and its Sv. Ivan Blend brand, an organic medium blend.

"These awards are more confirmation of all the hard work we put into our oils," said owner Tomislav Duvnjak. Both brands have been awarded every year at the World Competition since 2020.

In the 2023/24 crop year, Vodice used traditional methods to produce 5,000 liters of extra virgin olive oil.

"The weather was significantly warmer than previous years, and all the problems that we faced arose from this issue," Duvnjak said.
