The Palestine Collection

The Palestine Collection by Maknoon features a set of three 500ml bottles of extra virgin olive oil sourced from Palestinian lands. Each bottle comes from hand-picked olives harvested as part of a cherished family tradition. The olives are cold-pressed and bottled in the United Arab Emirates, preserving their natural qualities and regional identity.

At Maknoon, we work directly with small-scale producers who follow traditional methods of cultivation and extraction, keeping alive a heritage passed down through generations. The result is a pure olive oil, crafted with respect for the land and the people who tend it.

This set is designed for those who value authentic ingredients and wish to bring real origin, story, and flavor into their everyday cooking. Its elegant box presentation also makes it a refined gift for special occasions.

Flavor Profile

Our Palestinian olive oil, with its light golden hue, offers a delicate balance of flavor and aroma. It begins with a gentle bitterness and develops into a lingering peppery finish that adds depth without overpowering the palate. It is known for its fresh, grassy notes that reflect the character of the land where our olives are grown.

The olives used are harvested later in the season, resulting in a smooth, rounded texture that makes our oil a versatile companion for everything from simple preparations to more elaborate dishes.
