DREVA
The Heritage of Tunisian Olive Oil
Family crafted since 1890
“We do not produce olive oil. We preserve a heritage that began long before us and will continue long after us.”
The Family Through Time
Mohamed Boussoffara
Second Generation
Organic Transition
Brahim Boussoffara
Mohamed Boussoffara
Mohamed Boussoffara plants the first olive trees on the limestone hills of Dougga, choosing resilient Chemlali trees.
Second Generation
The family builds their first traditional stone mill for cold-pressing, introducing new extraction methods with care.
Organic Transition
A pioneer decision to transition all family groves to 100% organic farming, discarding chemicals entirely.
Brahim Boussoffara
Brahim returns to Tunisia to restore the ancestral lands, bringing century-old groves back to life.
The Harvest
When the olives reach peak maturity, they are hand-harvested by local families with ultimate respect.
THE LAND CREATES THE TASTE
Ancient Roman terraces nestled at 450–500m. The limestone-rich soils and 350 sunny days shape an intense profile.
Majestic mountain slopes situated at 600–650m. Pure water, mineral soils, and cool Mediterranean winds build a delicate taste.
WHY DREVA IS DIFFERENT
Organic by Principle
No pesticides, no synthetic fertilizers. We protect the land's health and soil integrity to harvest clean, natural olives.
Family Owned
Three generations of the Boussoffara family supervise the entire process, maintaining absolute care at each stage.
Cold Extraction
Extracted at ultra-low temperatures below 22°C to preserve natural vitamins, polyphenols, and aromatic complexity.
Ancient Varieties
We exclusively cultivate Chemlali and Chetoui varieties — native Tunisian trees known for high antioxidant concentrations.
