The story of Çig Yag begins with the careful selection of hand-collected olives, nature's gift to humankind. The olives are immediately ground in granite stone mills, put into special bags, and allowed to drain naturally. This oil, which is not thermally processed or hydro-pressed, is as precious as breast milk thanks to its vitamins and nutritious value. It is not filtered in order to preserve its natural essence.
Taris Zeytin A.S revolutionizes olive oil packaging by introducing this product in a porcelain bottle, a long-lasting and hygienic storage container for olive oil. The porcelain bottle is easier to clean, offers no ground for germs, and does not absorb water. The design on the bottle, Çintemani, is a traditional Turkish figure that symbolizes vigor and strength. It depicts the ultimate domination and absolute rule of the olive tree in nature.
Çig Yag is only available in limited quantities each harvesting season. Each bottle of this limited edition product is numbered with a unique metal plate. It is sold in a special box, designed specifically for the product. The bottle stands at 171 mm in height, a testament to the careful consideration given to every aspect of the design.
This design was awarded the Golden A' Food, Beverage and Culinary Arts Design Award in 2012. This award is granted to marvelous, outstanding, and trendsetting creations that reflect the designer's prodigy and wisdom. They are venerated products and bright ideas that advance art, science, design, and technology, embodying extraordinary excellence and significantly impacting the world with their desirable characteristics.
In conclusion, Çig Yag by Taris Zeytin A.S is not just a product, but a celebration of tradition, power, and the natural essence of olive oil. Its unique packaging design is a testament to the mastery and art of Taris Zeytin A.S, and a symbol of the unrivaled aesthetics of Turkish tiles. This limited edition olive oil is a testament to the power of design and innovation in everyday products.
