What's in the box
Four 250 ml (8.5 fl oz) glass bottles of extra virgin olive oil, each with its own Italian flavor, packed in a gift box:
- Garlic – savory and familiar, for pasta, bread and roasted potatoes
- Chili pepper – warm heat for pizza, eggs and grilled meats
- Rosemary – herbal and woodsy, for roast chicken, lamb and focaccia
- Basil – fresh and bright, for caprese, tomatoes and pasta
Product of Italy, from Basso, an Italian oil company since 1904.
Why it's a great gift under $30
- It fits any budget rule. At under $30 it lands right in the usual White Elephant and Secret Santa range.
- It works for anyone. No sizes, no colors, no guessing. Everyone eats, and almost everyone cooks a little.
- It looks like more than it costs. Four glass bottles in a gift box feel generous and gourmet.
- It gets used, not stored. A drizzle on pasta, a dip for bread, a splash on roasted vegetables. It becomes part of weeknight dinners.
- It's different. Infused Italian olive oils are a step up from the usual gift basket, without being fussy.
Perfect for…
White Elephant and Secret Santa
The gift everyone tries to steal. It's fun to open, useful for anyone who takes it home, and it stays under the spending limit.
Foodies and people who love to cook
Four flavors to experiment with: finishing oils for pasta and pizza, a base for marinades and dressings, or a bread-dipping flight for guests.
Hosts and holiday dinners
Bring it instead of another bottle of wine. Your host can open it that night with bread, or save it for the week after.
Coworkers, teachers and neighbors
A thoughtful gift that works no matter who receives it, at any age.
A smart corporate gift
Thanking clients, rewarding your team or sending something to partners? This set is easy to give in quantity: it's practical, it looks premium, and it works for every person on the list.

- Pizza and focaccia: drizzle chili or rosemary oil after baking.
- Caprese and salads: basil oil over tomatoes and fresh mozzarella.
