LONG-TIME TRADITION, KNOWLEDGE AND PASSION...
It all started
in 1929
When our grandfather Alojz Kocbek started working in milling and later in oil production in 1929, he never thought that his beginnings would grow into a family business that would be recognized worldwide for products of the highest quality.
Our history
What is important to us
Tradition
Because grandfather Alojz set the right path, we continue the tradition that allows us to make the best products we can make even today. We still use the same mill as in 1929 and still process the oil in the same way as then. And we will keep that forever.
Knowledge
Alojz Kocbek's knowledge has been passed on and nurtured through generations, and today the responsibility of the family lies with his grandson Gorazd Kocbek. Gorazd feels great respect and deep gratitude for this knowledge, so he continues to develop the KOCBEK brand as a forward-looking company in close connection with the past.
Passion
We are passionate in what we do and our goal is simple. Whether it's pumpkin seed oil or chocolate - we want to make the best products we can. We want you to taste our passion in all our products and for our passion to become your passion.
Respect for tradition and understanding of the modern.
From generation to generation, knowledge has been passed on and today it continues its journey under the wings of the creative hands of a grandson who respects tradition and understands modernity.
Luxurious Luxury Black Bottle
Luxury Black Bottle is the fruit of Slovenian knowledge, made in the Hrastnik glass factory on the basis of the needs of more demanding markets and their customers to present an exclusive, unique, luxury product with a convincing design story, content and packaging. Each bottle is hand-blown from the purest glass, without the admixture of heavy metals (crystal - as a prestigious glass contains 30% lead o.p.) and placed in a box made of century-old oak wood.
This glass is the most pristine for foodstuff, in this case pumpkin seed oil, the storage of which is most suitable in dark glass packaging.
The next chapter of high end cuisine
The new, luxurious filling of the bottle is organic pumpkin seed oil made from sorted out and polished pumpkin seeds of the indigenous variety, which were grown on intact soil in the vicinity of the Kocbek oil mill. The purified seeds are ground in a mill with real stones, which the Kocbeks started using in 1929.
