There’s a good chance you’ve seen it on social media. A sleek squeeze bottle of olive oil, wielded with chef-like precision over a perfectly cooked piece of salmon or a glossy bowl of hummus. Clean, confident, satisfying.
That’s the image an American brand called Graza has spent millions building. And it’s worked, they’ve convinced a generation of home cooks that premium olive oil should come in a squeeze bottle, divided into two simple jobs: one for cooking, one for finishing. They call is “Drizzle” and “Sizzle” and have recently added a third “Frizzle” for high heat cooking.
Congratulations to them for their marketing and branding, a job well done. However, there is no product innovation here. The olive oils they use come from Jaén, Andalusia in southern Spain, exactly where we, along with millions of consumers in Spain, have been getting our olive oils from for generations, and the squeeze bottle has been around for donkeys years.
There is one major difference though;
We don’t charge €150+ per litre!
Spanish home and professional chefs have been using these exact oils for decades. They just never bothered to market it. They didn’t think they had to because olive oil is part of the Spanish national identity, and every Spaniard knows what oil is used for what part of the food preparation to consumption process.
From Jabalquinto, Jaén — Direct to Your Kitchen
In the small municipality of Jabalquinto, in the heart of Jaén, Andalusia, Coosur has been producing extra virgin olive oil surrounded by centuries-old olive trees for generations.
Jaén produces more olive oil than any other region on Earth — more, in fact, than most entire countries. The quality of these olive oils is renowned across the culinary world. I guess Graza realise this also, and this is why they came to source their olive oils!
But why on earth would you want to have it shipped to you by an Amercan brand when you can get it straight from the producers in Spain?

Coosur didn’t need an American brand to tell them how to package their olive oils. They already had the answer: the biberón, the professional squeeze bottle that Spanish chefs have used in restaurant kitchens for years.They just decided to bottle it at source and sell it as it deserves to be sold.
The result is the Coosur Squizz range. Same concept as the squeeze bottle oils you’ve seen all over your Instagram feed. Produced by the actual Spanish source at a fraction of the imported price.
Two Jobs, Two Bottles, One Simple Rule.
Great olive oil has two principal roles in a kitchen, and confusing them is one of the most common cooking mistakes people make. Not to worry though, all can be simplified.

So what about those all those other gourmet and high-quality EVOOs?
Nothing that has been said on this page takes away from the higher end extra virgin olive oils that are available on the market. It’s just that sorting them all out can be a challenge for those who want something they can easily understand. And that’s what this Coosur range of olive oils does.
This range uses only the picual olive oil variety. Just like wines have many different grape varieties, olives have many different olive varieties. They are all distinct, extracted in different ways and at different times of the year, giving rise to the wide variety that is available.
