Founded in 2009 by Alka Kumar and Arek Kazmierczak, Sutter Buttes Olive Oil Co. is a family-owned enterprise located in Northern California's agricultural heartland. The company specializes in handcrafted gourmet products, including extra virgin olive oils, infused oils, balsamic vinegars, tapenades, and spreads. Sutter Buttes emphasizes the use of fresh, regional ingredients, with olives sourced within a 30-mile radius of the Sutter Buttes. Their commitment to quality is reflected in their state-of-the-art processing, which ensures their oils achieve acidity levels below 0.3%, surpassing the 0.8% threshold for extra virgin status. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
