Ancient Imports Olive Oil - Thousands of Years in the Making...On Sale NOW!


ANCIENT IMPORTS.NET


World wonders hidden from sight, ancient remedies perhaps unknown indigenous knowledge from lost eras; these are the secrets Ancient Imports unearths!


ULTRA PREMIUM EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL



Technique Reserved for Kings
"The oil is solely made from an undocumented ancestral Baladi-Ayrouni variety which is the most acclaimed olive tree variety in the world.  The Sisters are committed to quality, therefore half a dozen pickers inspect every single olive before the washing stage.  This meticulous step which adds about $2/bottle to the olive oil cost, was traditionally reserved for the 'Mir' or the king of Lebanon some 700 years ago.  The unfiltered oil is entirely processed and bottled by hand under vacuum, has a very low acidity (0.18-0.24), is very high in polyphenols and is made through the exclusive process of cold crushing within a maximum of 5 hours after picking.  (Many evoo producers process their oils up to 12 hours later and some use heat or chemicals to extract the oils.)  International Michelin star Chefs such as Yanick Alleno and Chef Dima Sharif as well as local Lebanese star Chefs "Joseph" Akkiki of the acclaimed "Burgundy" restaurant and Joe Barza from the show "Top Chef", have all tasted and used The Sisters' olive oil and all describe it as the best olive oil with which they have ever cooked!"

-The Sisters Olive Trees of Noah

This sounds like really great stuff, and the best part about it is that all the proceeds go to the preservation and upkeep of these ancient olive trees in Mount Lebanon, which are some of the oldest living bio-organisms on the earth!  Who but the grumpiest of curmudgeons doesn't want to help ancient trees?

Check out their website, ANCIENT IMPORTS.NET to learn more.  They are currently having a "Grand Opening Celebration" and are offering 10% off on all orders greater than $25 (until June 22, 2014.)  Just enter code 721NTJS.

My new book, "TAIWAN TO TEXAS: THE COMPLETE TRILOGY" available NOW at Amazon!



I just released a new book recently.  It's a compilation of all three of my Taiwan/Texas books in one massive omnibus.  At nearly 700 pages, the paperback version is heavy and HUGE, but awesome nonetheless!  I included some new chapters at the end to kind of bring things up to date for 2014.

Here's what you get:

The #1 Best Seller "AN AMERICAN TEACHER IN TAIWAN"
I'm actually kind of amazed at how well this book has done.  Of all my "non fiction" books, this is my biggest seller.  It's still at #20 on the Amazon Best Seller List.

The #3 Best Seller "FROM TAIWAN TO TEXAS: LIFE IN MID-AMERICA"
Usually people buy this one together with "An American Teacher" in Taiwan as they are basically companion pieces.  This book has also sold fairly well, and is currently at #30 on the Best Seller List.

"THE RELUCTANT AUSTINITE"
This one is basically all my Austin related stories, but written in the same style as the other two books.  If you liked the other two, you'll probably like this one too.  My weakest seller, but it's actually sold a lot more than I expected.
