Olivar Santamaria Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Khayyan's award-winning brand of extra virgin olive oils, Olivar Santamaria, has quickly become the go-to cooking and finishing oil of top restaurant chefs for it's incredible taste, long (23 month) shelf life, and high (409-degree) smoke point. 

Olivar Santamaria EVOO is available in "Special Edition," "Selected Harvest," and "Premium" editions and each is made exclusively from the finest hand-selected single varietal Picual olives, harvested and first cold-pressed in the northern regions of Andalusia and the plains of Jaen, Spain.

Khayyan has established relationships with the finest sherry wine vinegar producers in Spain and for the first time is offering "Crianza," "Reserva," and "Grand Reserva" aged vinegars to discerning home cooks.  Made from Fino, Oloroso, and Pedro Ximenez grapes and aged in American Oak barrels in Cordoba, Spain, Khayyan is offering multiple varietals of red wine and balsamic vinegars aged from eight to fifty years.

Of special note is the limited availability of Khayyan’s 50 Year “Gran Reserva Sacristia” Balsamic Vinegar, which was awarded the "Vinavin Gold Award 2015" for the best Balsamic in the Region of Córdoba.

After being repeatedly asked by chefs for premium spices, Khayyan is now bringing a line of spices and condiments directly to home cooks looking for authentic artisanal Spanish spices and condiments.

 Las Hermanas Smoked Paprika

Las Hermanas Smoked Paprika is made by gently smoking mature ripe and dried peppers over oak, creating a complex and invitingly warm and sweet flavor profile that will enhance a wide variety of foods.  With a uniquely rich and smoky flavor and a beautiful deep red color, Las Hermanas is the perfect complement to sauces, stews, and braises or as a finishing agent on cold salads, eggs, and vegetables.
