Growing up in São Paulo, my family’s roots were deeply entwined in the world of hospitality, shaping both my upbringing and eventual path as a champagne sommelier. As a child, I watched my grandmother and father work their magic in the kitchen, always adding a finishing touch of this special oil to their favorite dishes. Carolina Spicy Oil carries a rich history, with its distinctive depth of flavor and balance of heat, designed to delight spice enthusiasts.

Now that we live in California, my daughters and I proudly continue our Brazilian culinary tradition, and we are thrilled to share that legacy with you. Let Carolina Spicy Oil bring a vibrant touch of spice to your table!

This flavor-packed organic oil is made by infusing a medley of spicy peppers in extra-virgin olive oil and combining with a unique blend of spices. This is a recipe that was decades in the making and has been refined to perfection. I can’t wait for you to try it!
