Tunis, Tunisia — Rivière d'Or has been awarded a Silver at the 2026 NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition for the Rivière d'Or brand.
Rivière d'Or is a medium-intensity extra virgin olive oil produced from Chemlali olives in Tunisia. Rivière d'Or is distinguished by a rounded nuttiness, with walnut tones and a lingering dried-fruit character that carries through the finish.
