In an era when most entrepreneurs begin with a business plan, John Boyajian started out with a passion. He began exporting live lobsters to Europe in 1978. In 1980, he began exporting caviar to the U.S. In mid-eighties, John began to experiment with infused olive oils. Drawing on his Armenian heritage and family traditions, he developed a line of infused olive oils the market had not yet seen. In 2004, Boyajian withdrew from the caviar industry, after watching conditions in the Caspian Sea deteriorate due to a lack of environmental regulations. Today, the line boasts infused olive oils, Asian oils, vinegars and vinaigrettes, pure citrus oils, natural flavorings and extracts and smoked salmon. Boyajian has been honored with five of Boston Magazine's prestigious “Best of Boston” awards.
Rich with the fragrance of freshly roasted peanuts, this cold-pressed oil is wonderful for cooking, for preparing creative dressings, sauces and marinades. It is especially great for frying because it has a high smoke point.
Made with nothing but the pure oil of roasted peanuts.

High Quality

If you like the subtle taste and smell of roasted peanuts in some of your dishes - then you will love this. Wok cooking is greatly enhanced with this product along with grilled and marinated foods. I wish the bottle were bigger - you may want to get two.
