Our Story
Fresh Oil.
Real Flavor.
True Quality.
Redstone Olive Oil was built on one belief — that everyone deserves access to fresh, authentic ingredients. We’re here to change the way Utah cooks.
The Beginning
It Started With a Bottle of Bad Olive Oil
Like most great businesses, Redstone Olive Oil started with a frustration. After years of reaching for the same mass-produced grocery store oils — oils that tasted flat, turned rancid quickly, and offered little of the health benefits their labels promised — founder John DeRosa decided enough was enough.
With 35+ years of entrepreneurial experience behind him, John set out to bring something better to Utah: genuinely fresh, Ultra Premium certified extra virgin olive oil, sourced from the world’s best harvest regions and sold with full transparency.
“Friends don’t let friends use grocery store olive oil.”
— John DeRosa, Founder

Our Founders
Meet John & Tina DeRosa
Together, John and Tina DeRosa created Redstone Olive Oil as more than a specialty food store. Their goal is to offer a welcoming space where customers discover exceptional flavors, learn about freshness and authenticity, and feel confident about the ingredients they bring home.
John focuses on sourcing standards, harvest timing, and freshness requirements. Tina brings the warmth and hospitality that makes every visit to a Redstone store feel personal. Together they’ve built a business rooted in education, trust, and a genuine love of good food.
The Difference
What Makes Our Olive Oil Different
Most grocery store olive oils are 18–24 months old by the time they reach your kitchen. They’ve been blended, refined, and stored in ways that destroy the very compounds that make olive oil healthy and flavorful.
Every oil we carry is Ultra Premium (UP) Certified — meaning it has been independently tested and verified for freshness, purity, and authenticity. We source directly from harvest seasons around the world, so we’re always offering oil at peak flavor.
The difference isn’t subtle. Once you taste it, there’s no going back.
