The Olive tap was founded by Rick Petrocelly in Illinois in the late 1990’s before the Olive Tap Pittsburgh Franchise was established in 2013 by Hersh Petrocelly and his wife, Karen. Originally located in the Pittsburgh Public Market in the Strip District, it relocated to 19th Street in the heart of the Strip District.

Since the original opening, the list of 100% Extra Virgin and flavored Olive Oils, as well as Balsamic Vinegars, has grown to over 80 products. The Olive Oils are sourced from various countries including Spain, Greece, Chile, California and Italy while Traditional and Flavored Balsamic and Wine Vinegars are imported from Italy.   

In addition to Olive Oils and Vinegars, Specialty Foods, Gourmet Gifts,  Accessories, Spices and Custom Bottling with Personalization are also offered. The Olive Tap also has locally produced products from small, independent producers. Local items include honeys, maple syrups, salsas, barbecue and hot sauces, pasta sauces and more.
