The Coolest Pieces of Gear We Tested This Week

When you go to someone’s house for a party or a weekend trip, it’s customary to bring booze. But I’ve been trying to switch it up lately and bring a non-alcoholic consumable. After all, a bottle of wine goes fast, and not everyone drinks. So I’m stocking up on Brightland extra virgin olive oil. It comes in two expressions, Awake and Alive, plus they offer limited runs, too. Lucid, which is available now, contains zesty lemon. The California olives create an oil that is delicious and deep in flavors. I’ve been topping salads and omelets with Alive, which has a warming spice and a slight tartness. Plus the bottles are handsome enough to leave on the counter, and their opacity means that light doesn’t have an opportunity to ruin the oil. It’s so good, you may be surprised at how fast it goes. —Marjorie Korn, Senior Editor
