The Bleu Olive offers unique olive oils and balsamic vinegars, seasonings, rubs, and blends.  Everything is available for tasting, so you are guaranteed to love the product before you buy!

Located in the heart of Wheaton, the shop has already become known for its superior flavored and single varietal Extra Virgin Olive Oils, as well as its flavored and traditional Balsamic Vinegars from Modena, Italy.

In addition to oils and balsamics, The Bleu Olive offers more than forty (so far!) blends and rubs that may be used with the oils or separately to prepare quick lunches and week-night meals — or more extravagant fare for the foodies out there.

Shopkeepers Bob and Jacquie are happy to help you with pairings and share a growing number of recipes to ensure your culinary success!

Located just across the street from Suzette’s Creperie, we are open six days a week for your convenience.
