Why Every Food Lover Needs to Join the Texas Hill Country Olive Oil Club

If you love cooking, experimenting with flavors, or simply want to stock your kitchen with high-quality pantry staples, there’s nothing more exciting than a subscription that delivers gourmet products straight to your door. At Texas Hill Country Olive Company, we’ve created an Olive Oil Club designed for olive oil lovers who want to enjoy the freshest oils and vinegars while saving money and discovering new culinary experiences.

In this post, we’ll break down everything you need to know about our Olive Oil Club — from what’s inside each shipment to the exclusive benefits of being a member. Whether you’re a seasoned home cook or always searching for new oils, this club has something for everyone. You can even subscribe just to have a steady supply of last-minute gifts.

What Is the Texas Hill Country Olive Oil Club?

The Olive Oil Club is a quarterly subscription program that brings together the very best of our extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar collections. Four times a year — in February, May, August, and November — club members receive a carefully curated box filled with an assortment of our most delicious olive oils and balsamic vinegars. 

Each box typically contains three products (though occasionally 2–4 depending on the selection). It’s like opening a surprise every quarter — one filled with flavor, quality, and unbeatable value. And here’s the best part: each quarterly shipment costs just $59.95, but the retail value of the contents is always discounted by 20% or more. Add in our simple flat rate shipping — $6.95 in Texas, $9.95 out-of-state, and $20 to Alaska or Hawaii — and you’ve got an incredible deal for premium products.

Why Join an Olive Oil Club?

There are plenty of food subscription boxes on the market today — from cheese clubs to wine clubs to chocolate boxes. But few offer the versatility, quality, health benefits and culinary inspiration of olive oil quarterly selections. Let’s look at why joining is worth it.

1. Access to Fresh, Seasonal Oils

Freshness is everything when it comes to olive oil. Just like a great bottle of wine or a farm-fresh tomato, olive oil is best enjoyed close to harvest. Each of our shipments includes fresh-pressed olive oils from the new harvest, produced with care at our olive press in the United States.

This means you’re not buying oils that have been sitting on a shelf for months — you’re receiving bottles that capture the vibrant, nuanced flavors of freshly harvested olives. It’s a difference you can taste in every drop. We have no added preservatives or sugars offering the best oil.

2. Discover Unique Flavor Profiles

Each quarterly box highlights a different olive oil selection and balsamic vinegar pairing. You might get a bright, peppery extra-virgin olive oil one quarter, followed by a smooth, fruity blend the next. Alongside these oils, our balsamics range from classic dark varieties to flavored creations like Wild Cherry or Fig. These combinations are prefect for trying flavorful, easy recipes for less work. Imagine tossing roasted vegetables with garlic-infused oil, drizzling peach balsamic over grilled chicken, or crafting the perfect statement dessert with a splash of raspberry balsamic over dark chocolate cake.

3. Built-In Savings

Membership not only saves you money on each box, but also includes 20% off all additional purchases made on our website and in our tasting room (excluding subscriptions and club boxes). Think of it like having your own built-in discount code every time you shop with us.

4. Member-Only Perks

As an Olive Oil Club member, you’ll enjoy:

• First access to new product launches

• Invitations to exclusive events

• Special offers throughout the year

• The option to customize your quarterly shipment or redirect it at no additional cost. Swap them out for your favorite oil.

These perks make membership more than just a subscription — it’s an experience.

Shipping Details

We believe that gourmet products shouldn’t come with confusing shipping costs. That’s why we keep things simple with flat rate shipping:

• $6.95 within Texas

• $9.95 to other states

• $20 to Alaska and Hawaii

While some companies tack on a big shipping charge, we prefer to keep it transparent and affordable. And while our membership doesn’t include free shipping, the savings built into each box more than offset the delivery cost.

For the Home Cook and the Foodie

Joining the Olive Oil Club isn’t just about receiving bottles — it’s about unlocking new culinary adventures. Whether you’re a busy parent making weeknight dinners or an aspiring chef crafting multi-course meals, having a rotating stock of premium oils and vinegars inspires creativity. Our olive oil flavor adds just what you need to a comforting meal. Every box comes with opportunities to learn about different flavor profiles and recipe cards with special instructions. Many members like to keep tasting notes of each shipment, describing aromas, textures, and pairings. You’ll start to recognize the subtle differences between oils — much like a wine enthusiast identifying varietals. Before you know it you will be an olive oil sommelier. 

Comparing Olive Oil Clubs

Texas Hill Country Olive Co. offers something unique:

• Oils produced right here in Texas, rather than overseas.

• Quarterly shipments (instead of monthly selections), which makes it easier to savor each product without feeling overwhelmed.

• A built-in community with events and exclusive offers

• Bonus item: free recipe cards with each shipment

For Texans and fans of locally made products, there’s no better way to stay connected to the fresh-pressed oil scene.

The Perfect Gift Idea

Subscriptions make excellent gifts — especially for the foodies in your life. Whether it’s a gift announcement for a birthday, holiday, or corporate client, an Olive Oil Club membership is a thoughtful choice. It’s also a lifesaver for those who tend to procrastinate — a membership can be set up in minutes, making it the ideal last-minute gift that still feels personal and elevated.

How to Use Your Olive Oil Club Products

So, what exactly can you do with your quarterly box? Here are a few ideas:

1. Everyday Cooking
• Use extra virgin olive oil for sautéing, roasting, and drizzling. Try drizzling it over salad dressings, spooning it onto caramelized onions, or dipping fresh bread.
• Pair flavored balsamic vinegars with grilled meats or seafood.
2. Entertaining
• Create an olive oil and balsamic tasting board for guests.
• Craft cocktails or mocktails with fruity balsamic for seasonal gatherings.
3. Baking & Desserts
• Bake moist cakes with olive oil in place of butter.
• Top brownies with a drizzle of balsamic for a perfect statement dessert.
4. Healthy Living
• Swap processed dressings for homemade vinaigrettes.

Enjoy antioxidant-rich oils that support a balanced diet.

The Joy of Being a Club Member

Being part of a subscription club is about more than products — it’s about connection. As an Olive Oil Club member, you’re part of a community of olive oil lovers who value quality, flavor, and discovery. Every shipment brings the thrill of unboxing something new, the pride of supporting a local Texas business, and the joy of incorporating gourmet flavors into everyday life.

A Personal Note from Cara

At Texas Hill Country Olive Company, everything we do is rooted in family, passion, and heritage. I’d love to share a little bit of our story, because it explains why we care so deeply about making the best extra virgin olive oil and why our Olive Oil Club means so much to us. Our story starts with my dad, John, who always dreamed of owning a vineyard. As 3rd and 4th generation Italian immigrants, our family has long admired the traditions of farming, food, and hospitality that define our heritage. One Thanksgiving in 2008, Dad had just read an article about Texas farmers experimenting with olive trees, and the idea sparked something in all of us.

Instead of joining the already crowded Texas wine industry (there were more than 160 wineries at the time), we thought it would be more exciting to pioneer a new industry here in Texas and join the olive oil business. By December 2008 we had purchased land, and by spring of 2009 we were planting olive trees. It was truly a family effort from the start, with our family members pitching in to make this dream a reality: to create fresh olive oil locally. 

Since 2010, we’ve been proud to win medals for our oils in competitions across the country, and we continue to lead the pack today with the best olive oils. But more than awards, it’s the chance to share our oils, vinegars, and story with you that drives us. If you visit Dripping Springs, we’d love to welcome you for a guided tasting, where we’ll show you how to savor fresh-pressed olive oils and pair them with our delicious balsamic vinegars. For those who can’t make the trip, our Olive Oil Club brings that experience straight to your door. Each quarterly box is a reflection of the care, pride, and love we put into our work — and I personally guarantee every product.

Thank you for being part of our journey. We hope you enjoy every drop.
