It takes thousands of bees and countless hours to produce an eight-ounce bottle of liquid gold – no wonder honey was prized by an- cient emperors. The flavorful sweetness of raw, natural honey is a true delicacy. If you are someone who appreciates the sim- ple pleasures of life, you may enjoy Clois- ter Honey. Cloister Honey is dedicated to preserv- ing the incredible flavor and healthful benefits of natural honey. It attends to the hives, observes the bees and follows a time-sensitive harvesting process. It care- fully transfers the honey from the hive to the bottles, in the heart of Charlotte, North Carolina. This labor of love is entirely dif- ferent from what happens with mass-pro- duced honey. The small batch processing ensures you will taste the difference, be- cause after all, it makes its honey thinking about you. Why does Cloister Honey care so much? The obvious reason is taste. Raw honey is liquid bliss. Nature has done her job so well, it wants to preserve the good- ness, and share its love and appreciation for what nature gives us. Yet Cloister Honey's philosophy goes be- yond honey. The raw liquid gold produced by the bees in the hives and handcrafted locally creates an amazing connection to nature, and it believes that being connected to nature keeps life grounded. By eating natural foods, growing your own fruits and veg- etables or simply buying and supporting locally grown and harvested foods, we gain a better appreciation for nature. In time you can develop a healthier lifestyle and a greater ability to find joy in simple pleasures in life, like the taste of honey. Cloister Honey is proud to introduce its two newest flavors: Power Seed and Salted honeys. It has more than 15 flavors, including Cinna- mon, Bourbon and Lavender as well as its award-winning Whipped Honey with Ghost Pepper.

Cohn Olive Oil Company was founded and began producing gourmet olive oil, one of the first made in Sonoma Valley in almost a century. The B.R. Cohn Estate contains over 450 Picholine olive trees (French word from piccolo – meaning small, petite) imported from France in the mid- 1800s. This historic grove of Picholine olive trees led to the naming of the vineyard as the Olive Hill Estate. B.R. Cohn Olive Oil Company was one of the founding members of the California Olive Oil Council. The mission of the COOC is to uphold the highest quality standards within the olive oil industry and encourage the consumption of certified California extra virgin olive oil. Today, all of its extra virgin olive oils have passed the COOC's rigorous testing and bear the extra virgin olive oil seal of quality. The California Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil is its best selling light-bodied, aromatic oil and is full on the palate, with bright olive fruit and floral undertones. A custom blend of olives are pressed within hours of harvest to ensure freshness. It is a go-to daily extra virgin olive oil for sautéing and grilling. Certified organic by QAI, the Organic Califor- nia Extra Virgin Olive Oil is medium-bodied with sweet grass and floral un- dertones, fresh olive fruit flavors and a slight white pepper finish, crafted from organically farmed olives that are grown, harvested and pressed in California under the strictest con- ditions. Grown in Northern California, the Unfil- tered Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a unique blend of olives. The delicate fruit flavor and pep- pery finish create a versatile olive oil for your culinary needs. Use as a bread dipper or a butter substitute in recipes. The Tuscan Extra Virgin Olive Oil is back! This ex- ceptional extra virgin olive oil is a blend of Tuscan va- rietals grown in California with a defined pepper, spice and grassy flavor and a full- bodied finish. Drizzle over pasta, sprinkle over salads or use to marinade meats. Find more information about B.R. Cohn's extra virgin and flavored olive oils, plus a full line of wine inspired and balsamic vine- gars online at www.brcohn.com. For more information, call 877.933.6975 or stop by booth #1336.
