Despite their looming divorce, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are embarking on a new joint business venture. The two actors are now selling their own extra-virgin olive oil, called Miraval Olive Oil. The gourmet product is produced in partnership with Famille Perrin (a.k.a. the Perrin family) on 26 acres of land at Château Miraval, the couple's $60 million, 1,100-acre French villa. People reports that the olive oil has been available in France for several weeks on the Perrin family's website in three-pack units for $30 per bottle, as well as in two small Perrin family-run boutiques in Aix-en-Provence and Châteauneuf-du-Pape. A spokesman tells People that the first release of the product only included 10,000 bottles.Famille Perrin's website describes Miraval Olive Oil as "sweet oil with notes of almond, hazelnut, and artichoke barigoule. The palate is peppery and presents aromas of freshly cut grass. The finish is suave, spicy, and the bitterness at the end of the palate gives it a very beautiful balance." The high-quality, cold-pressed oil is packaged in a black bottle crafted from dyed-black sandstone, which helps protect it from damaging UV rays.This is not Jolie and Pitt's first time using their expansive French château for business. Back in 2013 they started bottling and selling a rosé, simply called Miraval, with winegrower Marc Perrin of Famille Perrin.
