Narrative

Note from the Consolidated Olive Growers of California regarding this variety: This is one of four varieties of olives grown in California for commercial canning. It is a Queen variety, known as the world's largest olive. It is named for the Seville district in Spain from which it comes. Because of its size, it has found favor with growers. Consumers, too, like the Sevillano and give it a place of honor on the hors d'oeuvre tray - for it comes in Giant, Jumbo, Colossal, Super Colossal and Super Supreme sizes.
